    Cheese worm found around 14th May.
    
    It scans 10008 port which opened by 1i0n worm. and removes rootshells from inetd.conf
    
    It says
    
    # removes rootshells running from /etc/inetd.conf
    # after a l10n infection... (to stop pesky haqz0rs
    # messing up your box even worse than it is already)
    # This code was not written with malicious intent.
    # Infact, it was written to try and do some good.
    
    Funny ?
    
    It was found in the directory "/tmp/.cheese/" and following files are found in this directory
    
    ADL
    cheese
    cheese.uue
