I'd say that the predictable TCP sequence vulnerability is not much of a
vulnerability: it allows, under certain condition, to insert man in the
middle and take over TCP sesion - of course, full access to the
communication line and not protection (IPsec/SSL) are the conditions. I
don't remember any patch for this "vulnerability" and I wouldn't worry about
it.
How to configure URLscan to hide IIS version:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=317741 This is security through obcurity,
which is not security - most potential "hackers" will just unleash all their
exploits against your site (just like you've done with your Nessus scan),
regardless of the version, or will get information from other sources than
banner grabbing.
