    /-|=[explanation]=|-\
    SimpleServer:WWW is a webserver. It has a simple denial of service problem.
    
    /-|=[who is vulnerable]=|-\
    Tested to be vulnerable:
    SimpleServer:WWW v1.03
    SimpleServer:WWW v1.05
    SimpleServer:WWW v1.08
    This only affects computers running Windows Millennium or Windows 98.
    I assume any version between v1.03 and v.108 will be vulnerable to this
    as well.
    
    /-|=[testing it]=|-\
    To test this vulnerability, try the following.
    www.server.com/aux
    Wait until you are sure this is sent to the server (timeout can take a while).
    Then try to refresh www.server.com. It should be down.
    
    /-|=[fix]=|-\
    After notifying AnalogX about this bug a new version was released the
    same day. Download version 1.13 to fix this problem. Thanks to Mark
    for a extremely quick reply.
