NET: worms running amok again

Well in case people are unaware of it, the net as a whole
looks like it is getting beaten to death by worms. There
was a message about it on /. before I lost connectivity
to it. DNS lookups failing, CNN.COM and a host of other
sites are unreachable from where I sit. Its seems to be
a swarm attack by sites that have been compromised where
attempts are made to try every known security hole.

What a mess.
Robert
