In short, what is it? The www.incidents.org describes it as follows,
but the numbers they have in this piece of copy are already old:
"The CODE RED worm is a malicious piece of software that replicates
and propagates to unpatched Microsoft IIS webservers running on
Windows NT or 2000. Once the worm has infected a machine it begins
scanning random IP addresses looking for other IIS servers to
infect. The worm is currently estimated to have infected at least
50,000 servers and is spreading fast. The scanning traffic generated
by the worm is now causing denial of service effects on many networks.
An analysis of the worm's programs indicates that all infected
machines will begin waging a flooding attack against www.whitehouse.gov
sometime tomorrow (July 20th). The effect of this many machines
operating in concert in a DdoS attack could possibly be devastating
to the Internet infrastructure".
cesitli kahkaha teknikleri denemek isteyenler varsa bunu bir kac kez ust
uste okuyabilirler. :))
