I caught one last night scanning 1026/UDP and 1030/UDP and doing popups
directing people to www.PopAdStop.com. The 1026/UDP and related traffic
is *definitely* popup spam related. At this point, I suspect that the
malware is getting onto computers via .HTA mime or ADODB.Stream vulnerabilites
in IE. However, I have no proof of this yet.

BTW, I did `wget http://www.PopAdStop.com` a little bit ago. Looks like
they could win an obfuscated JavaScript contest.
