This is the original comment from the IT folks (I have not yet discussed with them that this is a Linus server.)
My guess is that the scanning process will not be able to tell a Windows server from an Linux server...

It will not be possible to open access to your web site through the firewall. I had some confusion in why we were blocking your site at the firewall level. The reason for the confusion is that we don’t scan for content here. What we do scan for is protocol ( port addresses ) and your host is broadcasting the same port address that the Nirbot virus talks over. This means that this host is most likely infected with the same virus that infected us last February.
So, unfortunately, we will not be opening up this site.
It might be best to reach out to your host provider to see if they can update “patch” their servers with the latest MS security patches and AV patches…
