I absolutely understand your concerns. Personally I wouldn't want
anyone else to execute code on my machines either but a patch has been
available for months now. Every admin who cares about her systems has
already fixed them ( I'm aware that it may be difficult to apply patches
in some cases because they might break other stuff but after over two
months such problems should be solved).
The others who didn't care about Code Red are very likely not to care
about Code Green / CRclean either, yet they're still causing problems
for the community.
