URLScan can certainly change the banner and do nothing else.

However, you should figure out what exactly is incompatible between ColdFusion
and URLScan and address that. URLScan logs copious amounts of information about
why it is rejecting a URL in log files located at
%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\inetsrv\urlscan , and you can deduce which settings to
change in URLSCAN.INI accordingly.

You can run URLScan in a logging-only mode (no request rejection) by setting:
RejectResponseUrl=/~*

in URLSCAN.INI and restarting IIS (so that the setting change is used). In this
mode, URLScan will not interfere with your server's operation, but it will
continue to log requests that it would have rejected based on its current
configuration. This is a useful way to figure out how various URLScan settinsg
would affect your server operations without it actually doing so.

All these features are documented with URLScan.

Just wondering if any one knows how to change the IIS
banner information from the registry level to display
bogus information. I've tried using urlscan but it doesn't
work with my coldfusion. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
