Can someone with a lucky hand in Visual Basic actually tell us what
the trojan attachment we saw (LINKS2.VBS) we saw (full mail headers
included, in case Shawn hasn't seen them yet) actually does.
Seems to cloak itself well, and my Norton AV is *not* detecting anything.

On another operational note: I am seeing a vastly swelling number
of customers falling victim to the NETWORK.VBS worm: a simple VB script
that first scans surrounding network space for open, writable windows
shares (and replicates by copying itself into a shared C:\ drive, if
such drive is shared), then goes on to randomly scan /24's , where the
3 first octets of the IP number are random: this is generating
boatloads of violations in my "no RFC1918 in or out" filters (and
this is how this came to my attention).

We found a user who had scanned a stunning 9980 /24's this way : there
is a C:\network.log (or was it .txt) file showing the scan activity.
