    Something I've noticed in our Apache logs - 70% of the hits (maybe 20 so
    far) are from cable modem and adsl style addresses (according to the dig
    data). Notably home and mediaone.

    I've attempted to mail some places that their server is infected. Of 5
    mails sent, 3 bounced as undeliverable to webmasterdomain. One
    actually routed through two aliases before bouncing!

    Oh well, the Apache server is immune, the IIS server is patched, but
    there are no hits in its logs (though there were plenty for the cmd.exe
    exploit).

    As a side note, our address block is in the 12.x.x.x range.. perhaps
    AT&T isn't counted as a good target?
