We have a sniffer located on the network segment behind our Internet router
and in front of the firewall.  The stats below show attempts from Internet
hosts to connect to port 80 on random IP addresses on our class B network.
I have not included any connections to the machines that are running web
servers that are reachable from the Internet.

Dave, Wow! I've got a similar setup and have been tracking these
probes since 7/13. I'm lining our stats up side-by-side for comparison
purposes. Man they're similar! I have no idea why my class-b was
getting hit more frequently to start with. I'm speculating that my
address space just happened to get hit more by the worm's 'random'
address generator.
