Quoth Charles Curley:
Thanks, Mike. According to the folks at F-Secure
(http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/bady.shtml), Code Red affects NT/W2K
boxes running IIS. End users are not being infected, only those
running web pages. That page has URLs for exactly the patches needed,
which your RoadRunner email neglected to include.

Quoth I:
I would not want to bet on it. Almost all users seem to install the MS web
server when they install their system softwre. (Or else it comes preinstalled.)
If it is installed it is "running". If it is "running" and never had a real
page to display it is still vulnerable. (I followed about 20 different RedWorm
firewall hits out of curiosity. 18 of them had no viewable pages, one was a
cracker site (!), and one had the default IIS page showing.)

If you have a PC running Windows PATCH THAT MUTHA.
