    Using NetFlow data, instead of watching all of your traffic to tcp/135
    (which can be a great deal, depending the size of your organization),
    you can watch for single packets; destination tcp/135 with a size of 48
    bytes. You can also look for destination UDP/69 (TFTP) packets.
    Monitoring traffic on port 4444 was not as useful.

    Hope this helps.

    Subject: Detecting Blaster

    I have been trying to figure out if there is a way that I can detect
    signs of Blaster on a large number of machines on a network without
    having to actually visit each one.

    I have a port scanner (Ethereal) and have it setup to look at any frame
    with destination port 135. Is there a better way to do this, or is the
    way I'm trying to do this all wrong in the first place?
