Taking into account that someone else has already mentioned the concept of Code Blue, i.e. a reverse-infecting worm that takes over Code Red boxes and renders them non-scanning and prevents reinfection. This could be quite possible -- but there are many ethical concerns, and if not that, the creator of Code Blue, should they be caught and not the progenetor of Code Red may take all of the heat anyway.
I just got permission to put something up on my work's web page that allows us to track the number of hits by Code Red (and Code Red II) but I haven't had time to put anything so sophistocated together. Bravo.
Mind releasing code/information on how you did that one?
On other fronts, one of my co-workers is informing me that he's getting hundreds of such hits on his boxen sitting on the COX@home network, most of them seem to be originating from other COX@home addresses. I did see some mention that there has been lots of COX activity. I wonder what's the reason for that.
