We're seeing a lot of traffic associated with this on the Abilene
backbone, and it's building steam.  You'll want to start looking at your
own netflow data right away, if you have access to it, or contact your
upstream provider.  You're looking for outgoing packets to TCP/135, and
they appear to be 48 byte packets.
