My httpd access log is full of "GET /default/ida?XXX....", which is
evidently the Code Red II signature; haven't seen very many Code Red I
hits in the last few days (but Code Red II seems to hit us with much
greaterfrequency).  

The "NNN.." and "XXX..." strings are just filler to overflow a buffer;
the payload (and the real signature of the worm) is the bit of code at
the end, which is object code encoded in hex ("%u" and four digits).
Compare these and you'll see they are the same.  But it's so much easier
to type "grep NNNN /var/log/..."   :=)
