It would appear that yout IIS webserver is not patched. Sorry I'm not sure 
of the correct "hotfix" but you can find them at 
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/itsolutions/security/current.asp 
and select "IIS"

502 Bad Gateway 
"The server, in the role of a gateway or proxy, received an invalid response 
from the upstream server while attempting to fulfill the request."

hope this helps somewhat,

Subject: Unicode Logs with Ping Activity 


Would like someone to help me understand what is going on here... The 502 
error at the end end of these entries would indcicate failures, wouldn't 
they? I've been all through the logs on this box, and even thought at every 
attempt to copy c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe to c:\inetpub\scripts\shell.exe 
shows a 502, it is there.


I'm looking at the times on the log entries and guessing that this was a 
manual attack.


Also, can someone please explain what is being attempted with these pings?
aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa
bbb.bbb.bbb.bbb
ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc
ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd 
are all unique addresses.
