are you running IIS cause that is url exploit code ...... could be code red in the first two ... the third is a unicode exploit.

Toby,
Thanks for the link. Yep seems that nimda was trying to attack my compuer. I shut down PWS this morning. I will scan all files.
I never did get the code red virus which this nimda works off of, so I should safe.
