Is there some apache module that will notice various IIS exploits in

In some circles, that would be too easily mistaken for a DDOS attack tool.

assuming that the "attacker" comes through a proxy this is really nice. everyone else using the proxy will be blocked. so this is the opposite of a a DDOS attack because not many people are attacking one host, but one host is blocking many people. a really
"nice" behaviour.

may i have the web host URL which is using this approach? just a joke :)))

but why is it useful to block such people from which the attack is coming from? is
there really some reason for it?
