A late updated analysis of nimda reports that it infects exe files in memory
and on the hard drive of the infected machine. I don't think anyone has a
complete breakdown of the damage this worm does as of yet.
This thing makes the Morris worm and code red look like kindergarten stuff.

Subject: nimda virus changes on me
Well, I just put in a 24 hour shift to patch the ol' web, email, main and
terminal servers in one form or another and clean up 30 workstations. Was a
little too late in the blocking of all .exe files on the sybari but I think
this one entered thru the front web door on a client PC hitting an infected
web site.
Odd - two of the PC's out of the 30 were REALLY infected so as I could not
repair. I need to format these boxes. Has anyone seen this virus change or
morph into other executables other that the noted ones (riched20.dll,
readme.exe, load.exe, modified system.ini, plus several other windows
programs)?
Regards,
Ron Jameson
