Yes. Nasty diversion though and whatever else it does,
it smears an effort that doesn't deserve it. I've got
no problem with bare-knuckled competition; that's business.
This isn't that; this is crap.
Between these guys and the spammers, it makes one want to go
back to the Federal snail mail. Hey, maybe it's a plot
by paper envelope manufacturers in cahoots with stamp
glue producers!

The worm installs a proxy for sending spam and a backdoor.
It's just plain malware. The SCO DDoS is only a diversion.
(Today another hundred or so open proxies announced themself
to me. Perhaps I should have send this off-topic spam through
one of them... :-)
