Re: MSBlast and other known exploits..

I spent a few hours today taking over adn cleaning out a big spybot net of over 600 initial bots with a new bot coming in at least every minute (at one point 5/second).

Because there doesnt appear to be a 'cleaner' for it I wrote a program to popup a message box about it and point them at the symtantec page on how to remove it and uploaded and ran it on all the bots.

The net was so big that just in DNS queries to my IRC server for connecting named was at 310% cpu usage constantly.

Cheers,
