Shit is this a bad virus. We got it a month or so ago and managed to clean
most PC's. But we got re-infected today. It was pushing thousands of packets
and a consistant 2Mb through a core router.

It was only that we had a Packeteer and were able to limit icmp to 1kb that
we were able to recover. We've now blocked icmp on all WAN routers and
logging all traffic. What a day!

I'd love to get the Welchia author in a padded cell for a few minutes, I'd
throw thousands of punches for his thousands of packets. That's my whinge
for today, goodnight.

It would be better to patch immediately after the first attack !

Repeat after me "I must apply MSF security patches as soon as they are
available".

I found it in the windows restore folder, a protected folder. Had to
shut off restore, delete it, and restart restore.
