One of the recent announcements about Code Red II says that due to a
bug the worm only infects Windows 2000. It says the same is true for
the original versions of Code Red.
If I am following things:
Both Windows 2000 and Windows NT are vulnerable to the IIS
buffer overflow problem.
Only Windows 2000 is infected by the Code Red Worm I and II (so far).
Windows NT is not infected by the Code Red Worm I or II.
Is this really the case?
