Quite a few people were getting this error.  Possibly due to the Code Red 
worm.  It was supposed to hit 8pm EDT, that would be about 10am your time(if 
my math and timezones are correct).  Haven't heard if it was unrelated to 
this or not.

Not related, this has been happening to me randomly for a week or so.

 I haven't watched this thread, but the code red worm should not affect you
 if you use *nix as your mail and web servers

 Actually one of my Linux-only customers was affected by this last week, not
 because of anything to do with Linux, but because they're on ADSL with a
 Cisco DSL ``modem'' which was hit.  It appears that some Cisco equipment
 runs a web server that was vulnerable to the attack.

 Of course I have to ask why anybody wouldn't have already either turned off
 the web interface on their router, or at least put in filters to restrict
 access to it to just those people who should be doing the administration?

 Then again, I've never been able to figure out why responsible people run
 Windows on anything critical.

That's certainly one problem with it.  The other major thing it was doing
last week is attacking some Cisco routers which have their web server
turned on to the world.  We have a customer who's on a DSL connection with
a Cisco box connecting to the DSL which bounced several times before their
DSL provider figured out what was going on, and had him disable the server.
Our upstream provider had a significant outage on the same day which they
said was due to routing problems which could be related.  Personally I
think Cisco is to routers what Microsoft is to desktops.

We configure routers so that all access to their admin servers is filtered
to prevent access except from specific sites.  We're now using Linux boxes
with WAN cards in new installations, and these are only accessible with
secure shell.

A government of the masses.  Authority derived through mass

Attitude toward law is that the will of the majority shall regulate,

Result is demagogism, license, agitation, discontent, anarchy.
