I am not familiar with any HTTP aware network based firewalls which have
the ability to see inside of an HTTP request looking for TRACE and then
deny. Likely because its too much overhead per request. But hey, I could
be wrong, maybe there is one.

Reverse proxy servers could probably do this pretty easily.
