According to this message
(http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/snort/2002-04/0447.html):

"This is the signature of Grim's
Ping- a scanning tool that looks for FTP servers with directories that
anonymous users can write to (In other words- new warez sites). The tool
logs in as anonymous and authenticates with Xgpuser_at_home.com (where X is
any uppercase letter). It tries to find and write to commonly used FTP
directories and reports successes to the attacker.."

The tool can be downloaded from http://grimsping.cjb.net/.
