Sorry to bring this up, if you are not running Win 2K ignore this.  But I
did some more research on the hack attempt on my home server the other day
and found some interesting articles on a mailing list.  It appears that
even if you have installed the security patches--if you install SP2 you
have to go back and reinstall those patches for the OS and IIS5 as well.

The guy talking about it was able to scan his registry and found that the
security patches he installed pre SP2 were removed.  If you are interested
let me know.
