Are there any systems that could be setup to locate clients (say in a LAN) attempting to propogate worm infections, and then pass on an autopatch or something similar to clean it out (using whatever exploits/backdoors the worm opens or got in with).
Alternately, how about something that would deny those machines access to the network, perhaps by having a master password on local routers and commands capable of directing traffic from infected machines (on infection ports at least)
Server/network-level blocking (Score:2)
