    I recently noticed in httpd-access.log these entries

    200.140.XXX.XXX - - [03/Sep/2002:16:42:28 +0000] "GET
    /b.cgi?money&333596165&7503274E2F69 HTTP/1.1" 404 277 "-" "Mozilla"
    62.98.XXX.XXX - - [03/Sep/2002:17:19:47 +0000] "GET
    /b.cgi?money&332156089&538030224B00 HTTP/1.1" 404 277 "-" "Mozilla"

    I searched info about b.cgi on google and it sais it's a worm that tries to
    connect to a few listed sites, get some encrypted commands and execute them
    on the virused host.

    But why would he connect to my site ? (I even noticed such entries on my home
    dial-up system). I suspect it's some worm/scanner (like codered 'n stuff) but
    what vulnerability could someone find in b.cgi ?

    Does anybody know something about this ?
    BTW. I traced the IP to brazil... home of the script kidie groups... could it
    be some of their ./haxor-script -scan_the_internet stuff ?
