To Me DRdoug99 It doesnt really seem that vicios
its not milicios code that destroys any files or wipes out your hard disk or anything like that.
Say yur infected with the code red worm onece you shutdown and restart your computer your not infected any more..
its a strangesaughta worm man..
i contacted my isp concerning the worm and they said the only thing that will aply to those infected or uninfected is that you will notice a lack in speed when surfing..its like driving on a busy highway....

Damn Chinese..not racict or nothing but

wow, that is weird, a simple reboot of your computer will get rid of the virus....if only all viruses were that easy to get rid of.

LoL...true man true..
theyv'e worked out a patch for it but havent found thekl* strings for it yet aparently...its allmost like it just bumps round the net from1 pcto another infecting thepc showing that it is possible to do so , as easy as they have done.
I think there rather making a statemeant then infecting people to be n*a*s*t*y...cause as i said its not like its malicious code or anything

This site (http://www.incidents.org) has some useful info, as well as an idea of how many servers have been hit.

Guess some SysAdmins are running behind on security patches...
