-----Original Message----- From: Matt Williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2006 11:27 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: 404 help I have done that. Changing IIS catches bad directory names and bad non-.cfmfiles (as your blog mentioned). Now I'm trying to catch bad ..cfm file names. Going to DomainName.com\asdf.cfm throws the CF File Not Found error, not the IIS error.
