Subject: web.config in web root


 I have a client with a site on a shared host.  Yesterday, the site was
throwing 500 server errors and reporting that files in CFIDE directory could
not be found.

The tech at the hosting company did some changes which resolved the problem.
However, one of the changes involved putting the web.config file in the web
root.

This is a CF9 site on IIS.  I have never encountered web.config in web root
on a CF site running on Windows.  Doesn't seem to me that it should be
there.

Also, now if I go to domainname.com/CFIDE I get a 403 error page with some
site info displayed.  Doesn't seem like that is good practice.

Am I missing something obvious, or being too paranoid?
