While they don't say, the "number of infected hosts" graph makes me 
assume that they're counting unique IP addresses that tried to hit them.

As I said, my numbers are consistent with others posted here.  And I've 
gotten private mail about another, similar observation -- Code Red, 
Round 2, appears to have peaked a few hours ago.
