I have been getting reports from our clients (we develop Records
Management and 911 software systems for county and city governments) of
what sounds like a trojan or virus.  It's a process called sndmon32.exe,
it's killing the bandwidth and processor of all the machines and it
apparently spreading, I've not seen a packet capture of what's going on,
but I thought I'd pop off an email and see if anyone else has heard
anything?  I've googled for this process and hit every virus maker I can
think of, but no luck.

I know it's off topic, but I'd rather jump the gun than have it go off
in my face.
