Subject: DCOM Worm released

this is a practice worm. this aint the real thing. act like this one is
really bad and treat your network like it's the real worm that should be
here in a couple of days.

i agree, random ip, tftp slow, this thing is inefficient. someone out
there is working on the efficient one. use this as your dry run.
