Security Incidents: Large ISP response to Code Red?

Large ISP response to Code Red?

Hi:

As we all have seen the call to action regarding Code Red and the
next infection phase, I'm wondering what kind of action has been
taken by the large ISPs to deal with this issue?

The report from CAIDA cited home users are a large part of the
problem and another report even went so far as to list the
largest offenders by ISP.

Have these ISPs confirmed they have taken action to prevent
an even worse reinfection phase than the first time and if not
why?

This is a real case of either being part of the problem or part
of the solution and I believe these ISPs should be accountable for
their own bandwidth.

Thanks,
Jon
