Hi folks,

 For those of us who are running web servers on port 80 there is some sort of 
worm doing it's thing out there at the moment.

 I am currently getting 'hundreds' of http requests to "GET / HTTP/1.1" at the 
rate of two or three per minute from all over the world.

 If you have automatic directory listing or a large automatically sent 
index.html or similar page I'd suggest you turn it off now!

 I'd hate to see any more fellows being sent multi-kilo-buck bills for which 
they are not responsible.

-- 
Sincerely etc.,
Christopher Sawtell
