I don't know why anyone would say you have to change those, but you might
want to. By doing that, your server will not report itself as IIS; you
could, for example, have it report itself as "DaveWWW Server". By itself, of
course, this won't lessen your server's vulnerability, just the likelihood
that someone will use IIS-specific attacks against it.
