dos attacks : identical urls

How to eliminate a DOS attack that bombards a site with identical URL
requests ? ( for example: an URL that causes content to be retrieved from a
file , a web-service , a call to a sproc , or any other resource with a
relative high latency )

Is there a config or an add-on that will cause IIS to deny requests if too
many identical requests are queued ? (or the identical request has recently
occurred too frequently )

Get yourself a router with anti-DOS/hammer support ;o) (my Netgear
(DG834Gv2) comes with that as standard and since I bought mine, the price
has dropped to around £50 or so)
