You can still gain access to the system drive by requesting files from a
virtual directory that is mapped there:

/msadc
/iisadmpwd
/iisadmin
/scripts
/cgi-bin
/iisamples

etc...

Started looking at some of the .gov sites that he has recently broken into.
Did a request for nonexistantfile.idq ... many of them have their websites
on separate drives from the system drive.  Did they move the websites after
the fact/hack? Hard to tell. Gut check? Probably not.  Therefore, the
Unicode hole would not be effective and his claim still stands that he has a
gnu hole.
