Then again, Nyxem has no destructive payload that would cause server
instability -- it deletes nonexecutable data types, and it can't even
spread over network shares. I wouldn't be surprised if it was someone
being a pain with malformed packets / DDOS / someone hitting the wrong
switch in the server room, but it's definitely not "Kama Sutra" worm
related.

correct, this is not related to "kama sutra" worm though i find this an
interesting conversation, will keep myself updated here.
