I've seen the following attacks on one of my servers in the dmz

An attempt was made to run a program in the system32 directory from the IIS
server. - MS00-057 - "File Permission Canonicalization" Vulnerability 

HTTP URL Scans

URL contains a pattern that is allows a remote intruder to access files or
run programs on the web server machines. 


Is this what every one else is seeing?
