Code Red on RoadRunner

[Richard Meeker]

They're petrified.  Since they're running mostly NT, Code Red is killing
them.  The packet light on my cable modem has been going non-stop for
the last 72 hours and it's nothing on my network that's going out or any
bombs or DOS attacks coming in.  The only thing I can think is that it's
Roadrunner's IIS web servers going haywire since, apparently, Code Red
is supposed to send out broadcast storms.  I hope they fix it before it
renders their network as totally useless.

Anyway, I guess the moral of the story is that Roadrunner should NOT
have selected Windows NT as their backbone :).

RoadRunner sent out a spam last night about Code Red that said something
on the order of  "Awk! Awk! Eeek! Install the patch!  Aaiiee!".
