They aren't running it on purpose. It's a bot-network-installed web server
that runs to then serve as a landing place for others to get the payload
file. Like all those ecard emails with http://123.123.123.123/. This is
someone's machine that is infected that is sending out spams and saying,
here's a payload file.
