A curious article:
http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,55795,00.html
It says that the Messenger Service Spammers are using port 135, which
means that they're not using regular WinPOPUP stuff (the <03> names on
port 139). I do, in fact, see connect attempts to port 135 in my home
firewall logs. (I think they should be called slimewalls.)
I'm guessing that they're doing something RPC-related that has, basically,
the same effect. I'm just curious to know what it is...
