RE: Unknown requests from IE 5


From: Tom Gallagher <tom () mail websolid net>

These requests are generated by someone using IE with Microsoft Office
installed.  IE will query the server to see if it supports web
discussions.  This query will only happen if the user has the discussion
bar turned on.  The discussion bar appears by clicking the "Discuss"
icon or View-> Explorer Bar-> Discuss.  The bar is off by default.

Thanks,
Tom
