Last night we started getting a good number of these.  We are VRT subscribers and pull rule updates every few hours 
looking at PP logs it seems this rule hasn't changed in a good long while.  The clients that are triggering this rule 
are not XP machines (Windows 7, patched current). the servers it's hitting against are all windows 2008/2012 DC's.

I'm trying to find the info in the SO files about this particular rule so i can try and understand more about why it's 
firing now but searching in the source, we only see a reference to that SID in so_rules/bad-traffic.rules but that's 
only the rule text itself, not anything in code that could help explain why it's firing.

As a side note, the domain it's firing on are espn.go.com<http://espn.go.com/> or espn.com<http://espn.com/>

Anyone else seeing this or having any ideas?


The person who actually wrote this rule is on vacation today.  Let me defer until he gets back and have him answer.
