“Yet another Mydoom worm has hit but instead of targeting Linux-foe The SCO Group, the new variant targets Web sites of eternal whipping boy Microsoft and song-swapper foe Recording Industry Association of America.
Functionally, Mydoom-F is very similar to Mydoom-A. So much so that experts think the creator of the variant used the source code of Mydoom-A to create it. Mydoom-B dropped the source code of Mydoom-A when it was spreading so the code is generally available.”
