Attempted hacking???

Hello,

This is a well known bug in Micro$not IIS... check out my page:

  http://broadband.mongeese.co.uk/server-status

You will probably see a few requests for this on there too. It's a bug with IIS,
and someone somewhere is hitting your web server in the hope that it's IIS. If
it was, they would gain some kind of access to your system.

Hope this helps!!

Hobbs.
