We are seeing the probes being directed to *any* server, at random,
regardless of thier DNS name.  A side note, we've seen a 2000% increase in
the past four hours of probes for the IDA vulnerability.  All of them that I
have investigated have had identical signatures, and appear to be actions of
the "code red" worm.

Subject: RE: .ida Intrusion Attempt


Has anyone else noticed that it is only hitting www. servers? or am I
just lucky? I am getting many many attempts but ONLY on my
www.<whatever> servers I DO have servers with port 80 open to the
outside world that ARE NOT getting hit. from everything I have read on
this worm it is picking its IP's at random and if that is the 
case then
I should have been hit on something OTHER then these (few) www.
servers.. 

(or am I missing something?)
