17BotHunter (by Michael Dotson on 2008-12-08 13:54:14 GMT from United States)
This is a side issue to todays Distrowatch. I recently came across a story in the NY Times on-line web-page about a program callled BotHunter that works across all platforms, including linux. The obvious purpose is to hunt down malware. A live CD version based on Ubuntu is available as well as a tar.gz package. Perhaps I am just behind the curve, but I have never heard of this program until today and was wondering if anyone has had experience with it, and if so how well it works? The address is www.bothunter.net, and for the live cd as follows

: # * Live CD Distribution v1.0.2 (Official Release) - 17 November 2008
# BotHunter-LiveCD.v1.0.2.torrent [bittorrent only - 665.3MBs]
# (torrent file MD5 = 8617b7ca4c996a4b43cf42589c06beff)
# (ISO Image MD5 = 137c96d67d0f8605042a8cb92a3bf8dc)
# Live-CD: this is a self-booting ISO image of BotHunter operating on Ubuntu
Linux
