Re: [cobalt-users] The Code-Red Worm is attacking... GOD it's attacking.

After reading the URLs provided, I know why. The worm is set to 
distribute itself until the clock hits the 20th, then it turns and 
aims attacks at www.whitehouse.gov.
Fortunately for the webmaster there, it was aiming at the site's IP 
addy. So they just moved the site to another IP addy and effectively 
dodged the blow (that's been going on all day since others hit the 
20th way before we did).
