QED

Larry, my dear old man, please have your poor head examined.

What you've cited above doesn't have anything to do with the choice of server
technologies, much less with the choice or non-choice of MS.  That page comes
up because I specifically added a URL handler for that type of URL, and it
would be there whether the server was running Apache or IIS or anything.

As an aside, I do understand that the above error message can be an annoyance
for people who like to play lazy games with URLs, and subsequently it's likely
that I'll be adding some additional smarts to silently auto-forward to a
slashed URL if the slashed URL form exists and the HTTP referrer header is
undefined.
