I'm finally sick of it - logs full of requests used to, well, hack my system, 
searching for directories and permissions that I've long locked down and patched. 

**** Example Requests *****
/cgi-bin/..%5c..%5c..%5c..%5c..%5c..%5cwinnt/system32/cmd.exe, /c+dir+c:\,
/winnt/system32/cmd.exe, /c+dir+c:\,
/d/winnt/system32/cmd.exe, /c+dir+c:\,
 /iisadmpwd/..%2f..%2f..%2f..%2f..%2f..%2fwinnt/system32/cmd.exe, /c+dir+c:\,
*****

Anyway, as I was preparing to run a WebTrends, I was scanning the logs for a new site 
we put up and all it is are these types of requests.  Essentially, we'll always 
probably have to deal with these things as they are too many machines out there that 
are infected with administrators that don't know/don't care/don't know what to do 
about it.

Anyway (again) I'm looking for ways to stop these requests before they ever hit my 
logs. I'd like to stop them at the firewall, but that hasn't happened yet. Becuase I 
need to stop them at the IIS Server, I'm thinking the only way to do this is to 
install an ISAPI filter that will just ignore these requests.

Does anyone out there have a filter like this, or another method, that keeps my logs a 
little cleaner?

tia, j
