For some reason when someone tries to write a review for one of my products (http://www.brightlightgroup.com/tbb/s...), a URL is generated containing plus signs (http://www.brightlightgroup.com/tbb/s...) to replace the spaces in the product title. Microsoft tightened down security standards in IIS7.0 and doesn't allow + signs in URLs. It throws a 404 error when it encounters a plus sign in a URL. So, it's breaking my site. I can manually replace the +'s with -'s (http://www.brightlightgroup.com/tbb/s...) and it works fine. The only way to force IIS 7 to allow the use of plus signs also opens up the site to significant security issues - http://mvolo.com/blogs/serverside/arc....

Any suggestions on how to change this behavior?

Thanks, John

I see the issue you are talking about the product details page is passing the product name in the querystring in my broswer it replaces the spaces in the product name with %20 which is allowable. I have submitted this into programming and asked them to not pass the product name in the querystring and use session or some other method to pass the product name to the reviews page. Will post in this thread when the hotfix is availible.

The hotfix for the url issue on the write reviews page is attached just copy the 2 dlls in the zip to your \bin folder. Or you can download v2.92 from the downloads page it has the fix also. As alsways please backup before copying or installing anything new to your site.
