Just reading up on what happened (or didn't) with the Code Red Worm virus on the bbc news site......
taken from http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_1468000/1468329.stm
"What might also hamper the ability of the virus to spread is the relative unreliability of Microsoft web servers. " ..... "As Microsoft servers crash more often than many of their counterparts, this might limit the spread of the malicious code. "
you gotta laugh haven't you?
