Decrypted versions of links.vbs and rundll.vbs:

Highlights:

* The worm spread via email, IRC if it can find mIRC and
  by copying itself to network drives.

* Its not new, but it has spread wide recently.

* Most scanner are not configured to look for .VBS files by default.
  You must tell your scanner to look for them.
