I don't know the tool, but I have seen a similar and possibly related scan before. http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/archive/intrusions/2002/07/msg00119.html

• Indy.Library in user-agent
• Nimda-like directory traversal attempts
• Looks for shell.exe and root.exe and cmd.exe

Mine appeared to come from a Windows box, so I don't think it's a NIX only tool.
