    Ok, whoa horsy, I've got lots of copies of ADMIN.DLL now thanks!

    Analysis is still on-going to determine precisely what the infecting
    files do (there are potentially two, ADMIN.DLL and README.EXE).

    Some people have said their boxes seem unstable. It could be because
    of numerous copies of TFTP.EXE in memory. At this point it might be
    best to disconnect any computer that appears unstable from the
    network, until such time as sufficient analysis has been performed to
    advise how best to bring the box back on-line.

    It is also possible for client machines to perform the attacks that
    we're seeing, if you have a way to filter outbound HTTP requests you
    should look for anything that contains "/scripts" or "tftp" in the
    URL and treat as suspicious.

    The internal threat by this one is no different (and maybe worse)
    than CRII. We've seen indications of WnetEnumResource calls as well
    as references to IPC$. There may be NetBIOS share activity associated
    with the worm, and if so, it will likely spread rapidly internally.

    More than likely you will see the biggest effect in terms of a DoS
    (from many source machines). This thing cares not whether you're an
    IIS box or not, it tries regardless. As this spreads the effects may
    become more severe (no, I'm not going to provide a quote on how
    severe). Make sure you're inbound (and preferably your outbound)
    router rules are restricted to only those protocols that must be
    present, and ideally to machine IP addresses that should have access.

    More as it becomes available.

    Cheers,
