This doesn't attack the root servers directly, it's the traffic that the worm generates while trying to propagate itselft that DOSes routers and hosts...

Right now I'm seeing about a worm packet (well actually "datagram" since it's udp) hit our firewall about every 5 to 30 seconds. It was about one every 2 to 15 seconds...

Actually I'm surprised it's not more discussed here on AO...
