I have loaded it, but had patches up to date beforehand, so I haven't
had enough
time with it to form an opinion. Installs easily.

Has anyone had any experience with Microsoft's IIS Lockdown tool? If
so,
what do you think?

It says it prevents Code Red, Nimda, and other sorts of viruses without
having the patches installed. Obviously you should still patch your
boxes
(and MS clearly states this on their webite), but it could save a lot of
companies headaches!
