Denial of Service Payload
On the first system startup on February 1st or later, the worm changes
its behavior from mass mailing to initiating a denial of service attack
against the sco.com domain. This denial of service attack will stop on
the first system startup of February 12th or later, and thereafter the
worm's only behavior is to continue listening on TCP port 3127.
