labview application aborts when ISS scans the computer.

my labview application uses the web server for remote viewing. whenever the network is subject to an ISS scan, the application aborts. the OS is still running. by looking at the web log we have tracked the offending ISS test to:
"http-cgi-bnbform (3093) Medium Risk
BNBForm form processing CGI script allows remote file retrieval".
turning the web server OFF eliminates the problem. the indication is that the web server has a vulnerability.

How about a software firewall like ZoneAlarm? They have a free version that you can download. It would probibly work well enough for testing.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, my real goal is to determine why the NI Web Server causes my application to quit when this script is received. The network is actually protected by multiple levels of firewalls.
I want to fix the problem, not mask it.
