For those that were asking about Mayday...here's what I posted on it
elsewhere last November when I first discovered it...as you can see it is
quite old.

Subject: [] Another Spam botnet with P2P C&C? (maydaynet2008.co.uk)

We obtained this malware from a CBL listed host 75.61.210.26.  The malware
was NOT sending spam at the time we acquired it, however, we had a second
Seccheck user a few days prior where it WAS generating tcp/25 flows.

Unfortunately, it appears the current malware is partially crippled (some of
the web sites return 404 and 500 errors), however, the main "checkin" is
functioning (see attached)...it returns what appears to be some kind of
"peers" list (ala Storm P2P)...interestingly not only tracks the peers
public IP, but also their internal private IP.  Malware then proceeds to
generate ICMP traffic with the payload of "TOBE" (as in "To be" or "Not to
be"?) to all the peers once every 42 seconds.

Anybody else seen this?

Regards,

Lawrence
