Their solution:
>"Gartner recommends that enterprises hit by both Code Red and Nimda
>immediately investigate alternatives to IIS, including moving Web
>applications to Web server software from other vendors, such as iPlanet and
>Apache. Although these Web servers have required some security patches,
they
>have much better security records than IIS and are not under active attack
>by the vast number of virus and worm writers. Gartner remains concerned
that
>viruses and worms will continue to attack IIS until Microsoft has released
a
>completely rewritten, thoroughly and publicly tested, new release of IIS."
