The worm world is not seeing continuous improvement. Ok, probably overstated. There's always lame releases of software even if the trend is upwards.

Long discourse on noisy or 'loud' worms vs. more quiet wormish programs )

That said, there's fresher and fresher worms taking advantage of vulnerabilities made public over the last six months, and to top off a bad week, M$ released two new advisories. One is for rollup addressing a suite of Internet Explorer bugs (one of which is so bad, merely visiting a naughty web page can leave your computer backdoored to heck and back). With the reigning "tweak Microsoft's nose" mood, these don't bode well.
