Screaming-Penguin: Apache CodeRed Countermeasures with PHP: codeRedKiller!
"First off let me explain the premise. My goals are not to be malicious and to waste even more space and time dealing with the problem (ie, dont kill the offending server and the solution needs to have less overhead than a 404 or it there is no sense in doing it.)" Code Red is a pain even for Apache administrators. Its takes up time and space even to send a 404. Wouldnt it be nice to be able to help alleviate the problem rather than just trying to bear it? Countermeasures? You bet, heres how to do it with PHP and bash (and note that this could easily be adapted to whatever you regularly employ, perl, jsp, etc.).
