Hi, I'm new to the list and have tried googling but haven't come up with an answer to this question: Are other people writing plugins for the various worms/virii that come and go on the internet? In the plugins directory I see some but not many. Do people consider this a worthwhile venture? I know that the various vendors sometimes release tools to determine whether a machine may be infected (or infect-able). The reason I ask is this: We have users who wind up going into a default VLAN when it's discovered that they are infected. I would like to be able to write/use plugins to scan and ensure that they are no longer vulnerable to what they originally got shut off for.
