Madrid, March 10, 2004 - March 11 will be Netsky's day. At least this is what the creators of this virus have declared in a text hidden in the code of the K variant of Netsky.
The message reads as follows:
"Skynet AntiVirus - We want to destroy malware writers business, including MyDoom & Bagle. To F-Secure and so on, we do not want damage systems, we
only want to avoid that Bagle continues his dirty business. We have respect of your work (Your heuristic scan is not good enough! Make it better). When the beagle and mydoom loose, we wanna stop our activity. thats now. And personal words to mydoom: Your are so <omitido> i never seen in my life. A Sample is bin laden and saddam. Your are more, more as more. worse than bad, the only worst. I cannot describe you, you're so lame. And to the mydoom thiefs: You will go into the prison next time in texas, nice to meet the
bagle author there. <omitido>, its similar your food, you know. And do not watch too much porn. Last words to all AV firms: We are the Skynet, not
netsky! You can use commands on port 26 to deactivate the Skynet!. This is the last version of our antivirus. The source code is available soon. Note
that the optimization limit is also reached. You can't get more with smtp engines. bagle and mydoom can continue his dirty impact. the 11th of march is the skynet day.".
According to the message, the creator or creators of the Netsky worms could be preparing some kind of attack on March 11, which could see the appearance
of an even more virulent variant or the emergence of several new variants at the same time.
