It seems as if the Code Red worm has gone to sleep for now, at least so
far as we can tell. It will be interesting to see what happens when it
re-awakens.
My previous email noted that the ARIS project would be notifying as many
IP's as we could about possible infections of the worm. To that end we
notified against 172,066 unique IP's within 27,640 unique domains. We owe
a special thanks to Vern Paxson of LBL in this regard for supplying a
significant amount of data alongside our own ARIS data.
Some notes of interest:

As I said earlier, the traffic seems to have dropped off. This is a graph
showing this attack alongside the rest of the Internet noise( in terms of
attacks trending up), the cessation is readily apparent:
