Apparently you are alone in this. My IDS reports that scans continue from
the 64. Netblock, owned by Exodus.

I heard there were a few reports of Nimda going completely quiet in certain
netblocks, but none were substantiated.  I haven't seen a single Nimda IIS
exploit attempt since a little before 10 AM (EST).  I checked my IDS, apache
logs, IIS logs -- nothing.  Seems like it went silent.  Still seeing CodeRed
though. Can any one correlate?  I am somewhere in the 12.27 netblock :)
