					This module exploits a code execution vulnerability that occurs when a user
				presses F1 on MessageBox originated from VBscript within a web page. When the
				user hits F1, the MessageBox help functionaility will attempt to load and use
				a HLP file from an SMB or WebDAV (if the WebDAV redirector is enabled) server.

				This particular version of the exploit implements a WebDAV server that will
				serve HLP file as well as a payload EXE. During testing warnings about the
				payload EXE being unsigned were witnessed. A future version of this module
				might use other methods that do not create such a warning.
