This host seems to be running an ident server, but the ident server responds to an empty query with a random userid. This behavior may be indicative of an IRC bot, worm and/or virus infection. It is very likely this system has been compromised.

# See the Nessus Scripts License for details
#
# Revision History:
# v1.1 - first released version
# v1.2
#  * Registered security_hole on "port" variable instead of static 113
#  * Made socket timeouts and pause between socket connections variable
#  * Changed default socket timeout to 5 seconds to deal with bots that 
#    refuse connections in quick succession (NOTE: 10 seconds is the most 
#    accurate I've seen, but it makes the test *much* slower)
