SYMPTOMS
When Internet Information Services (IIS) version 5.0 receives a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that includes an embedded special character that is formatted as an escape character, IIS may not process the URI correctly. For example, instead of processing the escape character "%2b" as a plus sign (+), IIS may process the escape character "%2b" as an argument separator.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Windows 2000.
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information in this article when the information becomes available.
