    Ah... I was wondering..
    
    1) If CodeRed will attack W2K Professional, and now I know.
    
    2) I am getting lots of hits from @Home network (24.x.x.x) and was (sorta)
    worndering.... Now I think maybe some @Home user are running W2K
    Professional and didn't even know there is Personal Web Server running.
    
    Thx!
