RE: [CF-Dev] OT: IIS4 crashing

Taz,
Is there a firewall in front of the server?
If not you may want to try using the port filters on your network card to
only allow the ports u need open.
If you do have anything getting into your server, taskinfo will show you all
incoming connections and what is running, and where the connection is coming
from.
