That's the strange thing about it. The internal proxy server is used only
for internal-to-external WEB traffic. If any PC/server used the proxy to
access the internet, it would be logged in the proxy's log, which it's not
the case here. I cannot find any entries in the log that has anything to do
with the cmd.exe/root.exe expolit.
 
What I also find strange is that part of the "payload" is part of a SMTP
connection/message?? 
 
I'm really confused..

Hi all, 

That sounds right to me.  Assuming that the machine has been infected with
one of the IIS exploits, and now it is trying to infect other hosts, you
wouldn't see anything in the Proxy logs about it since IIS will be sitting
on the external interface.  Proxy should really only see traffic between the
internal and external interface.  Check the web logs, it'll be there.

Good luck,

I am far from being a professional about any of this so if anyone see a 
mistake in what i say please correct me so i can learn. IF you are 
running IIS, this appears to me to that your computer is/was infected 
with nimda and it is sending out to try to infect other IIS computers.

I've set up monitoring of outoging cmd.exe/rootexe traffic on port 80. But

I'm note quite sure how to get interpet these logs. 

The traffic is leaving our network and entering on port 80 on the 
destinaton. What is so strange is that the traffic is leaving from out
proxy 
server. But I cannot find anything in the proxy log with reference to 
root.exe or cmd.exe... Any ideas anyone??
