    I agree. It looks like someone has just whipped up a script to scan for
    the vulnerability, possibly loosely based on the Nimda code. Not much to
    be concerned with if you're patched. Not much you can really do about it
    anyway. Lately, I've been just dropping all traffic from Korea and
    surrounding areas. No offense to anyone, but it seems that anything
    registered with APNIC should be under close scrutiny. Korean networks in
    particular appear to be the armpit of the net. I have no need to
    allow communication with them, so I just save myself the trouble and
    filter it out.
