staff blogs

distributed.net staff keep (relatively) up-to-date logs of their activities in .plan files. These were traditionally available via finger, but we've put them on the web for easier consumption.

I wanted everyone to know that the latest in our worm saga has arrived.
Our friendly worm writer has included my personal email address as the
configured ID in dnetc.ini (gentleps@muohio.edu.) I would like to take
this time to assure everyone that I did not produce this worm.

This worm is spread via open c shares to c:\windows\system and
c:\WINDOWS\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp\. You should be able to use bovine’s
wormfree (http://www1.distributed.net/~bovine/wormfree.zip) program to
clean your machine. You can read more about his application and what it
does at http://n0cgi.distributed.net/cgi/dnet-finger.cgi?user=bovine. If
this does not work contact us and we will work to update the program.

We will be correcting my stats within the next day or so, but until then
please understand that they will be corrected soon.

Please feel free to email email abuse@distributed.net or
help@distributed.net if you have any questions about this or any other
worms.

Thank you for your understanding. Paul

And on a personal note, Today is my birthday! I’m 27 if you really want
to know. My loving Wife gave me a spray bottle for the grill. She’s great!
(Well she really gave me a new set of Golf clubs about 2 weeks ago) I’ve
had Donuts and the Cake and Ice cream will come later. What a great day.
Nothing better than a birthday to make you feel great. Check out my Amazon
Wish List if you care to. }:8) You can see the kinds of things I Like
and Enjoy to do for fun.
