Can you back up that assertion with references or is that simply more
disinformation?

This thread started with a significant piece of disinformation (there is
nothing in 'violation' of RFC's by sending data on a half-open connection,
nor is there any presentable evidence that IIS responds to these).  Let's
stick to the realm of the reasonable rather than making more unsupportable
assertions.
