We did big time!!!!
I would love to catch the little W anchor that wrote it and string him up by the bollox.
If we send an invoice to microsoft for the cost of lost production and time and effort to sort this out do you reckon they would pay it

The police would be more than interested in hearing about any financial loss caused by this worm. It could help with the procecution if the blighter is ever caught.

This virus exists only in memory of unpatched Microsoft SQL servers. Its purpose is simply to spread from one system to another and it does not carry a destructive payload.
This worm causes increased traffic on UDP port 1434 and spreads between SQL servers. Heavy network traffic, associated with this threat, can effect network performance on all systems on the network.
