   I had to drop my web server. Took me a while to figure out what was going on.   
   I killed every task on the computer I could and it stayed bogged down like    
   crazy.  I'd telnet into my machine even using 127.0.0.1 from the local computer   
   and have to wait a few minutes before I'd get to the login prompt! It was so   
   slow, once it connected, you got nothing at all, I had time to burn a CD, check   
   back and it was checking my ip address.... Start another CD burning on my    
   laptop and oh look now I can enter my name.... Wait.... Password.... etc.   
   Frustrated with that and it wanted to crash 2-3 times, I was wanting to see if   
   I might have missed an update or something....Checking the version number I   
   looked at the Synchronet's screen and saw lines flying like crazy.... Closer   
   inspection late last night I noticed it was my web server with lots of   
   non-existing files....  Apparently some web server's infected with the code-red   
   or similiar virus, but either way it's rampant attack on my server has brought   
   mine to its knees..... I shut it down temporarly till I have the time to dig    
   through and see the IP address I need to bann....
