PhreeZone 20 #2 August 7, 2001 It always attacked NT and 2000 machines.... Lucky our great and powerful HH has us on a Linux machine. Not my favorite platform to secure but a whole lot better then NT or Windows 2000. There is another virus that is much cooler going around right now that is not getting any media attention. Sircam will mail out your personal documents to anyone who you have their address on your computer. It also searches your visited web pages looking for addresses. If anyone wants more details about either of these things message me!Do I HAVE to do another raft dive???

CodeRed.v3 has a different payload that allows the hacker to have full remote access to the Web server.I assume that's what you mean by "has mutated and attcks windows 2000 and NT machines." Instead of just using the server as a launch platform, it now allows a hacker to do anything with it he wants to.
