Well, any easy quick way to identify the culprit, would simply be to use
tcpdump...
according to
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sobig.f@mm.html
sobig will attempt to get ntp at least once per hour
so something simple like;
tcpdump -n -i eth1 udp port 123 (assuming that eth1 is your internal
interface and you aren't currently legitimately making outbound ntp
requests on all your workstations :) )
or you could use netfilter to block the traffic and then check your logs
