thanks for the advice.

I explain myself about "crashing"

when the worm is active, smbd launches a lot of thread
owned by the user with the infected file.

then, all the following threads are launch about 10
times in a second.

this puts samba in a panic that unable users to log
and/or to access their shares if they are already
logged.

finaly, smbd doesn't react to kill <pid> or hill -HUP
<pid>

the only solution is then to reboot the server.

here is the explication of what I mean by "crash"

cu,
ioio
