Today, Steven Adair from Shadowserver imformed us about a new piece of malware that looks like a new version of the infamous Storm Worm. Storm was one of the first serious peer-to-peer botnets, it was sending out spam for more than two years until its decline in late 2008. Mark Schloesser, Tillmann Werner, Georg Wicherski, and I [Stormfucker](http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Storm-Worm-botnet-cracked-wide-open-739607.html>did some work on how to take down Storm back then, so the rumors about a new version caught our interest.
