Re: Nimda Probes Stopped

We're still seeing several probes per second into a /17, though the rate is
noisy.  The probe rate is not going up any more - suggesting some degree of
saturation.  Are you sure someone upstream of you didn't apply some filter?

Apparently the probes have stopped as quickly as they began, here at least,
around 2:30 Eastern time.

internettrafficreport.com is showing some recovery also.

Is this phase over now?  Makes one wonder what's next...
