SCO Puts Bounty on Worm Writer - The SCO Group confirms it is experiencing a distributed denial-of-service attack apparently related to the Mydoom worm, and it is offering a reward for capture of the virus writer. Its apparent target is SCO, which is embroiled in legal action against IBM over intellectual property rights related to its ownership of System V Unix code. The company says it is offering a reward of up to $250,000 "for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual or individuals responsible for creating the Mydoom virus." Experts says the damage could continue for months or years. About one in every 12 messages being sent through the Internet contains the virus. Another story can be found here.

KASPERSKY LABS warned it had detected a variant of Mydoom, the worm which wreaked havoc worldwide earlier this week.
The anti virus firm said that it believes that Mydoom B is using machines infected by the original version of the worm to launch and propagate further attacks.
But, unlike Mydoom A, it appears the payload will launch denial of service attacks on Microsoft as well as on SCO.
If the payload is executed, the worm prevents users from accessing a number of sites, including sites such as Sophos, Kaspersky and Symantec which will have ways of preventing or removing the attack. µ
* MEANWHILE, in what may be an unrelated event, SCO's site appears to be down.
