The servlet to be disabled is the invoker servlet, not the DefaultServlet.
The reason you see "DefaultServlet" so much in these postings is that the
DefaultServlet can be "tricked" into serving the sources of your jsp's by
invoking it over the invoker servlet, thereby treating jsp's like static
content. But the trouble is originating in the invoker servlet.

Maybe I don't understand, but DefaultServlet, which is supposed to serve
static content is disabled... How are we supposed to serve up pictures, etc
that are static??
