    No, not around here anyway.  My latest hit was this morning, the
    27th.  I will say that traffic levels for this one are somewhat
    reduced from what they have been, and days may pass without any
    hits.
    
    My guess is that what we're seeing now isn't entirely the worm
    operating, but that the worm's exploit has been incorporated into
    various scripts.
