Funny that you mention this.  I sent Alfred a quick reply last night (just
after he sent out the first Code Red feelers) noting this same kind of
activity.  Our /24 hasn't seen a single Code Red scan yet, but Snort has
been flagging directory traversal and CGI probes since about 9PM last night.

I can't wait until high school is back in session and this nonsense takes a
back seat...

Agreed. I'm seeing a sharp increase in HEAD queries, HTTP relay
attempts, formmail probes, as well as a whole assortment of HTTP type
probing in general. I have seen 9 confirmed Code Red traces, 
but this is
almost background noise to the amount of TCP/80 traffic that has kicked
up since early this morning.
