Not a guarantee by any means but I found this somewhere and it looks like it
might help with code red stuff.  Just add into any 404 page that you have.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">
<%
'Custom404.asp page to thwart Nimda DoS attacks on IIS
'by Humankind Systems, Inc. http://hksi.net/
'No support or guarantees of any kind are granted with this
'code. Use at your own risk. Distribute freely.

'Get the entire URL requested
 myRequest=Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")

'A list of filenames Nimda looks for
 myBadList="cmd.exe,root.exe,admin.dll,default.ida"

 'Detect a GET request from the Nimda virus and take appropriate action

arrBadString=Split(myBadList,",")
 for i=0 to UBound(arrBadString)
 if inStr(myRequest,arrBadString(i))>0 then
 'turn offending server back on itself
 Response.redirect "http://127.0.0.1";
 end if
 next
 %>

If you're running any cisco routers at your border I know there are some ACL
list setup's for this too that effectively blocks nimda stuff.
