Thanks Thorazine,
That was a "2" rated virus/worm on Norton's web site earlier today. Now they upgraded to a "4" like MSBlaster.

They have a little bit more info, on the remote shell TCP Ports that this worm opens:
Creates a remote shell on the vulnerable host that will connect back to the attacking computer on a random TCP port between 666 and 765 to receive instructions.
