When I say web traffic I mean only port 80. All other traffic should be fine or at
least bearable. I had this happen to a server and rebooting only stopped it
temporarily then when I left it down for like 5 min It seemed that the worm started
looking elsewhere because it didn't come back to haunt me. So I am not sure if that
was a fix for me or I just got lucky.
