Below is an analysis that was taken from: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/evaluation/680/web/analysis.txt

quote:
"We've designated this the .ida "Code Red" worm, because part of the worm is designed to deface web pages with the text "Hacked by Chinese" and also because code red mountain dew was the only thing that kept us awake all last night to be able to disassemble this exploit even further."

who ever named code red - drank the stuff while dissassembling it - thus "code red" got it's name.
