The exploit the alert refers to can target MDAC.

The rule has known false positives from certain games. It is possible 
that some of the streaming traffic from this radio site triggers the 
alert. Verify that the source IP belongs to the radio site and check the 
contents of the offending packet.

You may also configure the $SQL_SERVERS variable to correct this if the 
traffic is determined to be legitimate.

p.s. It is a nice administrator that permits staff listen to Internet 
radio at work. =)
