I get hit every 2 minutes. And apparently lots of computers are now
advertising that they can be remotely controlled. Wouldn't it be nice if
there were some 'hack' to send to such a server so that it gets fixed.
I've got a list of hundreds of ip's of IIS-servers almost begging for an
antidote!

My stats for today (20 hours): 601 CodeRed2's, 8 CodeRed1's. With my
cablemodem it looks like my whole country is infected. Although it's
only 268 unique ip's. CodeRed2 attempts to spread a lot more than 1.

Well, better start ignoring the output.
