It looks like the "Code Red" worm has the added side effect of crashing
Cisco (675/678) DSL CPEs running any CBOS prior to 2.4.1. The GET it sends
looking for IIS servers hardlocks any modem with the web management
interface enabled.

CBOS v2.4.2 is unaffected.  Also, turning off the web interface with 'set
web disabled' also prevents the crashes.
