Did you read my initial response? It describes the likely possibilities for writing a file. It probably wasn't a Windows exploit actually, unless you happen to be running Windows 2000 or something. IIS and Windows are fairly secure "out of the box" and don't have remote exploits that let you write files via HTTP requests, unless you enable WebDAV.
