I run a website design company but, because it grew from a hobby, I also have an interest in PC Security. I get to play with nice pirces of kit at my company's expense and I currently lurk behind a D-Link DI-614+.
The program came about from a discussion with a friend of mine who writes shareware in VB and who was getting hammered as well. It started out as an intellectual excersise really, and once we found a way to get a message back to infected people then it kinda grew from there into a small app you can run on your desktop.
One thing to note: Most of the machines hitting us don't appear to be protected
at all. You can access the drives remotely using 'backslash-blackslash-ip' (eg: \\11.22.33.44) and most of them will show a list of shared directories, so it turns out that this worm is advertising open machines.
Just doing our part
