-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I've had a bunch of messages regarding URLScan. Some people have
complained that they have to install URLScan in order to get the
instructions on how to configure it. Still more have said they cannot
find any instructions.

1. URLScan.exe, the download, is a .cab file (self-executing zip
file). Like Hotfixes, it can be expanded to a directory by running
URLSCAN /C, if you run URLSCAN /? you'll be presented with a list of
options.

2. When URLScan is installed you will see a file called URLSCAN.TXT
in your %systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\urlscan directory. This file
contains complete instructions and examples for all of the options.

Microsoft really should put this file up as a page link from the
advisory page (or turn it into a KB article and provide a link to
it).

Remember, Microsoft clearly states that URLScan is for "experienced"
web administrators, its not for everyone, not a supported tool (e.g.
its like resource kit tools), and may cause more harm than good (by
generating huge log files or degrading your system performance when
under attack).
