I noticed I had a virus on my computer, iexpiore.exe. This just slightly annoyed me at first. Then, I noticed that this virus had made me part of a large Denial of Service attack! This personally pissed me off!
I then used Zonealarm to find out that this specific virus connects me to a DALnet server, to await instructions. Using windump (TCPdump for windows), I found out which nick the trojan tries to send messages to. Now, I'm just waiting for this guy to log on so I can get his IP. Once I've got that, this guy's ISP, as well as his local police are getting reported.
It's worth noting that when I used this guys nickname for several seconds, I got literally hundreds of messages from infected computers, so everyone, be on the lookout for "iexpiore.exe" showing in your task manager.
This script kiddie is going down! And before you ask, I DO want a cookie.
