I hope you're not doing this on a real network!  There are a number of
network simulators that would simulate such things.  One that comes to
mind is SSFNet at http://www.ssfnet.org .  SSFNet has a package called
SSF.App.Worm that "models the spread of a network work such as Code Red
v2 or Sapphire/Slammer."
