I've come across a few XP hosts that are trying to be sneaky with the
"Internet Firewall" feature enabled. I've seen responses from NMAP SYN
and ACK scanning while seeing next to nothing on Nessus. Also, I am
unable to uncover any additional information about the hosts and
available services. Do you have any tips on beating the XP "firewall?"
Perhaps there is a post in the archives.

What happens when you run a chunked encoding exploit against it? If you
don't get a response and your connection is suddenly terminated, it's
vulnerable. I would not consider the server "safe" just because no one
has posted exploit code for it to bugtraq either.
