Title: IIS Slow Down Due to Nimda?
I'm blocking at the firewall.[1] Still has an impact on our bandwidth, but at least the server is free to get on with things...

Subject: IIS Slow Down Due to Nimda?

Any one seen there IIS Server slow down due to the bug?
Is there anyway to stop the request(cmd.exe) from even being made to you box?

Here's is what my logs look like. Sunday was a little slow but on an average day we get around ~700 unique visitors.

Date         Hits    Successful Hits
09/16/2001 : 372   : 222
09/17/2001 : 3,454 : 1,026 
09/18/2001 : 6,224 : 1,046 
09/19/2001 : 5,401 : 745
09/20/2001 : 2,193 : 86 

Total Hits : 17644
Average Hits : 3528

That's around 14,000 hits alone from this virus.
I don't know what its doing to the server, but is there any way to make it stop?

HEY, not true, not true. We got hit on 3 servers and were able to cleanse
manually and never even turned off the servers, nor did it impact our
regular production.

For those of you that were unfortunately hit with the latest worm. There is
usually no recourse but to wipe the machine clean and reload your software.
Trend Antivirus has released a cleaner for the virus. Here is the info.

Trend Micro has developed a cleaning tool that will allow you to clean
systems infected by PE_NIMDA.A. The cleaning tool and instructions, manual
cleaning instructions, and the latest pattern file can be found on our FTP

This thing is on a machine at work and it writes .eml files all over the
place in the folders on the hard drive. Is there a way to get rid if this
virus? What is it? Uninstalling outlook express or email would that do it?
It ran very sluggish and now is frozen up. HELP
