I pasted below my one of my log files for IIS, can anyone tell me what
it's trying to tell me? the log isn't garbled in any way, that's just
how it looks; lots of what seem to be escape chars.

i've blocked off port 80 until i work out what's going on!

cheers

Looks like an virus attack. There is nothing you can do about it, except
make sure that your server is up-to-date.

The return code was 404, so the attack was not successful.
