It might be discussable installing a - easily uninstallable - routine which send emails and (broadcast) messages to admin account accessible from the infected box, stating very clearly what to do 1) to get rid of the worm 2) to get rid of that utility afterwards. But surely not another virus. The only correct way IMHO is to shut of the access to the networks for offenders. Via the direct ISP or the upstreams. This has been done before, and this works.
Ron DuFresne's <dufresne () winternet com> post indicates that this method doesn't always work as well as we'd like it to. Personally I prefer a technical solution to begging and court orders. http://www.technocracyinc.org/images/cbusses.jpg illustrates my point quite accurately. Markus Kern
