Here is a signature for Snort that will differentiate between the Speedera

above the *nix and BSD ping signatures in your rules file, since both will
also match)

alert ICMP any any -> any any (msg:"PING Speedera"; content: "|3839 3a3b 3c3d
3e3f|"; depth: 100; itype: 8; )

I know this is a little bit old now, but I have had this rule in my
ruleset (custom based on the 09262k ruleset) for a week or so and it does
not differentiate properly.  I assume there must be some other product out
there doing the same type of thing... perhaps somebody with some more
snort knowledge would like to come up with a rule for this one? ;)
