Remember; this client is literally bombarding the ISA with requests.
While the ISA team certainly stress-tested ISA, they can't possibly forsee or 
even test every possible traffic pattern.

Blaster is particularly insidious; it overwhelms the target with RPC calls that 
are specifically designed to bring the victim host to its knees.

Hi Tom,
I think it is really so bad that just one client can make isa firewall service 
down...Why isa dont disable this client?By default isa allow 40 simultantaneous 
connection, if there are more than 40 isa dropped the old ones.So what is the 
problem?
