Default New worm?

Hey, has anyone heard about a new worm that has hit the net within the last couple of days? Our spam protection is usually pretty good, but the last day or so we've gotten TONs of spam.

There are other possible explanations of course, but similar stuff (on a smaller scale) has happened before with the release of new worms.

Hey Ryan,

Is Vbulletin immune to this?
