how about redirecting them ...(to themself)
Authored by: johnww2 on Jul 20, '02 04:39:12AM

I copied and pasted this bit suggested above into my httpd.conf on my linux box, and replaced "www.microsoft.com" with "localhost". I tested it from my Mac OS X machine and it redirects hits on /default.ida to my Mac OS X's webserver, so I'd say it works.

This will have the effect of causing the infected machine to redirect to itself, and is perhaps better than getting involved with redirection at the evil empire.

Here's the modified version:

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteRule /default.ida http://localhost/ [L]         

# trap exploits of code-red compromized systems. 

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteRule . http://localhost/ [L]
