Sorry for the cross-posting... Here's yet *ANOTHER* worm program to add to your 'Selective File Filter' control files: 'EID EXEC'. This one seems to be from SAUPM00, and is amazingly enough not a clone of the others we've seen lately, and although written in Rexx, looks like it was written by somebody more familiar with EXEC-2. It's replication code is rather lame, and this will fortunately tend to slow down its rate of propagation. Has somebody from Bitnic talked to the Gulfnet powers-that-be about this situation? It's getting more than slightly tiresome. If things don't improve in the near future, it's going to become *very* tempting to automagically trap *everything* from the problem nodes, just so I don't have to add Yet Another Exec every 2-3 days...
