FYI: I found these to be interesting reads about a distributed denial
of service (ddos) attack against grc.com by trojaned windows machines:
http://grc.com/dos/grcdos.htm
http://grc.com/dos/winxp.htm
the latter having a great photo about Microsoft XP zombies :-)
Steve Gibson (grc.com) is the author of spinrite (HD analyzer/corrector)
way back from the DOS days, and now dabbles in internet security issues
(ShieldsUP, etc). Some of his statements & predictions seem a bit
overplayed, but overall it is pretty interesting stuff.
