RE: Frequent Strange Requests



	This is the code red virus trying to harm the webserver thinking you have
NT IIS webserver i believe , i get 10,000 - 25,000 a day on our busy
webserver. As i heard there is a way to block requests to your webserver by
"the request it self" which is default.ida am not sure how to do it but i
heard this somewhere.

Subject: Frequent Strange Requests


L.S.,

While scanning my Apache Access logs I recently discovered that my webserver
gets some strange requests. While just guessing I can say I get these
requests about 10 to 25 times a day.
My site is just a personal site, no commercial activities are done here.

212.1.145.112 - - [12/Sep/2001:15:37:33 +0200] "GET

Can anybody tell me what this is, whether to worry about it and what to do
about it.

Thanks in advance,
