I see exactly what you mean, but that's easily fixed.

$HTTP_SERVERS = [ip1,ip2,ip3,$IIS_SERVERS]

No, you misunderstand me.  Reverse it.  Do none of the other rules
detect things that effect IIS?  For example, there's  web-attacks,
web-cgi, etc.  In fact here's the number of times '$HTTP_SERVERS' is
found in the ruleset I have:

ATTACK-RESPONSES.RULES: 12
DELETED.RULES: 12
DOS.RULES: 1
MISC.RULES: 2
WEB-ATTACKS.RULES: 47
WEB-CGI.RULES: 296
WEB-COLDFUSION.RULES: 35
WEB-FRONTPAGE.RULES: 34
WEB-IIS.RULES: 113
WEB-MISC.RULES: 261
WEB-PHP.RULES: 15

So, if you make it so something in '$IISSERVERS' is not in
'$HTTP_SERVERS', tons of rules no longer apply.  Not simply the ones in
web-iis.  This may have a undesired impact...
