Very quiet day for me at work...
"Alex Brak" shot me an e-mail on my post from yesterday in regards to the "Code Red" worm:
I just wanted to point out that the Code Red worm affects only NT and W2K IIS servers, and that a virus scanner will not stop it.
There are products that will stop it, but its essentially a bug in the Index Server of the operating system that allows the worm to funciton, and hence the best solution is to install the appropriate Security Hotfix from Microsoft.
For the hotfix that will prevent Code Red exploiting your box, visit here.
FYI, the microsoft site that regularly releases is here.
Thanks for the useful info. Alex, it is very much appreciated by us!!
