I did look, would you mind posting a link? I did find topics like this:

ms-help://MS.NETFramework.v20.en/dv_vwdcon/html/3ef36871-2cb9-452a-8c96-2068fccead18.htm

or

ms-help://MS.NETFramework.v20.en/dv_aspnetcon/html/40130404-8509-4efa-b4db-36ebaaba5b62.htm

But absolutely nothing about an ISAPI filter returning 404 to any requests
to those folders. Paul's reference is to an IIS documentation, not .Net,
which is probably why I didn't know about that and why it isn't updated for
.Net 2.0 to include the new folders.
