Which won't work on Xitami...someone apparently didn't do their homework :)

(CodeRed only affects IIS servers...however, several virus alert
organizations (perhaps even the FBI) might be interested in those IP
addresses).

BTW, I too have some of those requests.  I think the most harm that it
could do to Xitami servers is flood the logs :)  My server would be hard
pressed, however, to consume 5GB in logs (current free HD space)...I would
probably guess that something was happening *WAY* before Xitami would use
even 10MB.
