A new method for blocking Code Red and similar exploits that use HTTP GET requests has been published.  The method uses 
new capabilities within Cisco IOS software.  Read the on-line advisory at:

http://iponeverything.net/CodeRed.html

The beauty of this solution is that it can be used to block Code Red infections today and can be easily modified with 
new signatures in the future using the HTTP sub-port classification mechanism in IOS.
