    If you do a look into the ISAPI filters on the test site they seem to be
    stripped down, although windows XP itself doesnt ship with all of the nt4,
    win2k ones (but ms loves backwards compatibility so i doubt that) so its
    obvious the server is setup to "win."
    
    Look at the last MS contest against Windows 2000... ya it was not "hacked"
    into but what was released a few months later that lead the the remote
    penetration of many Win2k servers? IIS Unicode vulnerability.
    
    I am sure Windows XP will have a remote vulnerability within it found also.
    
    Where there is functionality there is going to be failure.
