    I'm seeing some machines with literally thousands and thousands of these
    files filling up their HDs.  Besides in the root director I'm seeing
    people with them in the scripts directory as well.  Another thing
    interesting to note, but not surprising, is that a lot of the hosts I'm
    seeing infected with this new worm are machiens that still have teh Code
    Red II trojans sitting on them.  This could really cause some headaches.
