    some folks here asked about ongoing Nimda infection attempts, and why
    they haven't fallen off the way CodeRed did.
    
    see our new report on global Internet worm activity for answers:

    quick summary: we still see roughly 5 billion Nimda attempts every day,
    and although CodeRedII is dead, CodeRed has become the new Internet
    locust plague...
