A very bad thing for the network Robb, we all know that you're rooting for the pirates and bandwidth hogs, so of course you are going to try to characterize this "new" software as a gift from the Deity him/her/itself. The fact of the matter is that this new malware doesn't participate in any explicit congestion notification mechanism, including those proposed as IETF standards. Therefore, the only way it can decide to slow down is if it has ALREADY DAMAGED THE NETWORK by causing packets to be dropped. |
