    HI All,
    	Has anyone else noticed that code red has bounced back very 
    quickly this month after its sleep period.  In past months snort has 
    not seen CodeRed attacks until 9th or 10th, this month I started seeing 
    them on the 2nd and by the 4th they had overtaken nimda and now they 
    have overtaken lastmonths peak with 9 days to go.
    
    I also keep an eye on how many systems are probing us on port 80, this 
    jumped from about 800 unique source addresses per hour on Nov 30 to 
    nearly 3000 this morning.
    
    Any ideas what has changed?
