Don't know about tapiperf.dll, but infocomm.dll and w3svc.dll must be from
the 'Infinite Get' fix for Internet Information Server. It fixes a DoS
attack against IIS that I have reported to MS back in December. The fix by
itself is available at
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/infget-fix
<ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/infget-fix
> , and the details on the attack - at www.nsi.ru/enema
<http://www.nsi.ru/enema> . The KB article is Q192296. This fix was not put
in the hotfixes-postsp4 directory, so not many people have noticed it.

        I was just browsing the Post-SP4 hotfix list
        (the mirrored site:
        ftp://198.105.232.37/fixes/usa/nt40/hotfixes-postSP4/roll-up/)
         and came across a new one labelled "roll-up".
        It appears as it is just that, a roll-up of all the previous
hotfixes,
        except that when doing a file-by-file comparison, it has 6
additional files.
        These are:
                infocomm.dbg, infocomm.dll
                tapiperf.dbg, tapiperf.dll
                w3svc.dbg, w3svc.dll
        Does anyone have background information as to what problem this is
fixing?
        Or perhaps a Knowledge Base article number associated with it?  Did
I miss
        an announcement?  At the time, it was just the two exectables (intel
and
        alpha) and nothing else, no readmes or anything.

        Thanks,
        Ray
