    We are starting to get reports here from various users around our
    site that our HP network printers are displaying strange messages
    such as 'Good Morning', 'Nimda Live', and 'Kill Trees'. Has anyone
    else noticed this behavior? Any information on what vulnerability
    is being exploited here or whether this is the same Nimda agent as
    that propagating across Windows platforms would be greatly
    appreciated.
