ok, since your the third person to ask about this stupid worm, no ;)

it requires vulnerable versions of

wu-ftp    (not used by cobalt at all)
rpc.statd (update on cobalt web site for people who have ancient os)
LPrng     (not likely , as you don't have it :)

You should as a general rule , however, check the list of updates on
cobalt's web site for patches to other things which were broken...

OS4 for the raq3 is important :)
