PCWorld: “Failing to practice what it preaches, Microsoft acknowledges the Code Red worm infected two servers used for its Hotmail Web-based e-mail service.
“A few MSN Hotmail servers were affected by the Code Red worm virus. The servers were promptly removed from the MSN Hotmail environment, shut down and patched,” says a Microsoft representative in the United Kingdom. The infection was detected late Wednesday afternoon in the United States, she says.”
