1.      Although you find it hard to believe, this is the actual server
response, so you can't argue
2.      I didn't say the msadc folder is under E: I just say that it seems
like the server is directing /msadc/ to E:..../msadc/

        ????????

        First of all you say that with IDQ you get this:
        
E:\Somedirectory\docroot\msadc\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\winnt\system32\
test.idq

        I find this hard to believe since NT will never show you \..\..\
kinda traversal
        chars (they filter these
        NON unicode encoded chars out, unicode would be ../..\..),
        and another point is that the msadc directory is NOT after
document_root
        directory but it
        is on c:\program files\common files\system\msadc and another point
is that
        winnt\system32
        will not be found on drive E: (at least not with normal
installation).

        It is.
