    Yesterday morning I sent a file (name: SCRSVR.EXE) into various anti 
    virus labs and asked them to confirm my suspicion that it was a new open
    share worm. Since this morning my suspicion is confirmed. I think that
    it is related with the reports of "unusually high volumes of 
    UDP:137 probes". It's the same malicious program Mark Forsyth has 
    already mentioned.
    
    Here's more info about that open share worm:
