Put a sniffer on the offending workstations, see what you get.

the file names.  Whatdoyathink?

Subject: [Full-disclosure] Backdoor.Sdbot.N Question


Anyone know how Backdoor.Sdbot.N spreads?  This morning we had several users pop up with this trojan (or a new 
variant).  These users generated a ton of traffic until their machines were unplugged from the network.  There 
systems have all the markers for the Backdoor.Sdbot.N trojan (registry entries, etc), but was not picked up by the 
Norton virus scan.  In fact, even it you perform a manual scan after the trojan was discovered, it is still not 
detected in the scan.

I would also like to know if this is also an indicator of not having the patch for the Blaster worm.
