    It's likely infected with the W32.Weird virus, which 
    drops the Kuang2 backdoor.  It's most likely a 
    95/98/ME box.
    
    Just to add more data to the mix, here's a list of the 
    Kuang2 scans I've logged on my box (cable modem ATTBI 
    subscriber, 24.62.* IP address) from 1/1/03 to 
    present.  The Cnt column is the number of scans by 
    that source IP/port, usually within 2-3 seconds of 
    each other.  Since I DENY packets and don't send a 
    refuse ICMP some hosts will attempt 2-3 times before 
    moving on.
    
    I marked three entries with an asterisk, since they 
    have a source port of 17300 rather than an ephemeral 
    source port.  I wonder if a particular scan tool does 
    this.  I experienced peaks on 1/26 (8 scans) and from 
    2/5 to 2/9 (3-9 scans per day).
    
    My other question I have on Kuang2 is if it's capable 
    of distributed scanning like SubSeven.  If it is, this 
    could also be responsible for the occasional peak.
    
    Kuang2 (TCP/17300) scans from 1/1/03 to 2/17/03
