Subject: RE: Possible new variant of Nachi

Working hypothesis is as follows:

Hosts were turned off previously so they didn't show up in routine
scanning.  Then they were turned on and got infected with Nachi.  Nachi
patched for MS03-026.  Then a scan showed them patched for MS03-026 but
not for MS03-039.  Then snort reported their infection.  So, it appears
to be a timing issue rather than something new.
