And just for everyone's enlightenment, here's why you have to
restart the entire process:
The redirector is implemented as a DLL. The configuration is loaded
into the DLL on library load. When IIS restarts a single instance, it kills
and restarts threads, but not any DLLs and not any heavy-weight processes.
Therefore the configuration doesn't get reloaded (and new versions of the
DLL doesn't get loaded, etc).
Sometimes knowing the reason for the problem makes other things
clearer.
