I would tend to assume that isn't a variant of the worm. It's certainly
not CRv1 or CRv2. The HTML is about 40 bytes longer than that in Code
Red, so it would be a bit more than simply changing the HTML code in the
worm and relaunching; you'd have to adjust the content length reference,
and a number of other items. I would think it's non-trivial.
I would think this was a hand-done response to Code Red.
