RE: SSL CodeRed et al

["Wilcoxon, Steve" <swilcoxon () iqmarketing com>]

I have seen cases where nimba could crash non-IIS servers because the server couldn't handle some of the strange URL's 
correctly and started using up resources. When Nimba first came out we had a middle tier java based server that 
crashing (every 1-2 hours) until we tracked it down to Nimba. Our solution was to have the traffic to that server go 
through an Apache server that was doing URL filtering and then ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse. We also notified the 
manufacturer of the S/W about the problem, but no fix from them yet.
