Re: Microsoft IIS problems (Current)

[GVB <gvb () abused com>]

I have seen a few machines where IIS has been crashing all day.  I am guessing
it is related to this idq.dll worm.  All of these machines DO have the
Q300972 patch applied to them, yet they are still crashing.

I would like to test some things (repatching, applying service packs, etc..).
Does anyone have a proof of concept exploit for this problem?

Thanks!
