    We are observing a large number of invalid DNS response packets being sent
    TO our web server.  Is it possible that your colleague was describing this
    problem?

    Hi there,
    
    	I've just had a call from a colleage saying he's heard talk of a
    worm which strips certain records (he mentioned MX) from Microsoft DNS
    servers?
    
    	Has anyone heard of this?
    
    	Regards,
