Hey Jim and everyone else,

I'll take the leap and admit that I'm a moron here. 

Is it me, or does no one explain how the Blaster exploit gets into a
network? Is the exploit passed via email? A Web site download? 

Or, is it brought in by dreaded machines that have had a direct
connection to the Internet and some "worm" NOS scanned it for TCP 135
and deposited its payload on it? Then the machine was brought on the
internal side of the firewall and spread that way?

I'm just trying to figure out how the thing is spread, and if all
machines have been behind an ISA firewall (not just a packet filter),
then it would be impossbile to get hit without someone coming in "out of
band".

Thanks for any and all help at educating me on this!

Tom

No prob; when (if) you finish the ISA log-SQL import tools, I'll take
credit
there...

Since the little punks are making things interesting, I've had to update
the scripts. http://isatools.org/msblast.zip.

OK; I finally finished them:
http://isatools.org/msblast.zip

It contains two scripts:
- block_msblast.vbs; this will prevent an internal infection from
spreading outside your walls
    it likes all Enterprise variations and Standalone environments
equally
- fix_msblast.vbs; this will remove the little bugger and even validate
your hotfix instalation (in the registry, anyway)

.take a look at the logic for the blocker script; you'll understand why
scripting rules for Enterprise environments can get so hairy.
