What's up with this? Seeing stories about this on Slashdot. Washington Post, ISS etc. Anybody hear more about this?
I'm kinda concerned, I noticed this morning there were over 100 port scans attempted on my box last night, strangly they were all from SBC servers (as best I could tell), ran some security checks, don't see anything...

Some "hacker" could've been feeling joyfull that night and felt like running portscans. As long as you're not vulnerable then nothing to worry about.

Witty worm? Didn't hear about it... /. is a place to just read... not believe everything they say ;)
