Subject: Anybody know what Sobig.F has downloaded?

As many of you know, the latest Sobig.F virus was scheduled to begin
downloading unknown code from various IPs at 3:00 EST today on UDP port
8998.  Does anybody have any idea what this code is?  Are the infected boxes
actually downloading code?  Does anybody have an infected Windoze box with
Sobig that can see what code was downloaded?

Here's a link to some info at Sophos in case you are unfamiliar with this.

Looking at the infection rates of this virus, I'd say that it's pretty
important that we find out what this code is and what it does ASAP!

Thanks,
