Worm Warner - Warns hosts that are probably infected by a worm

WormWarner is a scripts that warns hosts that are probably infected by a worm. It decides whether a host is infected by analyzing the data from the Apache log files. It currently recognizes CodeRed, Nimda, the Linux.Slapper.Worm, and the FreeBSD.Scalper.worm. Warning is done by trying to contact the SMTP server on the infected host and sending an email to the postmaster. When this fails WormWarner tries to send a warning to the ISP
