Pure crap .. we block code red at our routers and no code red traffic makes it to our web servers period .. web msg still crashes and has horrible performance .. this is a Ipswitch issue not a code red issue .. They have got to come up with a better one than that.

I think this is a more wide spread issue that IPSwitch lets on. I called tech support this morning because the service keeps crashing and the support rep told me that my problem was most likely due to the fact that I run web messaging on port 80 instead of the default 8383. The way that CodeRed/Nimda works is... blah blah blah, and that was probably crashing my server. They are aware that CodeRed/Nimda may cause the service to crash if it runs on port 80. It has been known issue since 7.03 but they DON'T plan on addressing it in a future release. Their solution was for me to run my server on port 8383, which would be immune from CodeRed/Nimda. That's complete garbage! This server has been running for a year or so (on port 80) and I haven't had nearly this many webmessaging problems. I suggest that you call IPSwitch directly and talk to their support staff. If enough people complain they'll have to address the issue.
