[cobalt-users] ASP engine spinning



I have a virtual site which does NOT has ASP connected - however, this domain was previously using ASP very heavily.  When requests come in for now non-existent asp pages, I expected the 404 handler to cut it - but it doesn't!

Instead of the user seeing 404 - the ASP engine sits spinning it's wheels, and consuming large amounts of cpu.

The problem is that this results in a load average of 2-3 - and if this process is left unchecked, during the nightly log-processing time (3-4AM) - I see a lav of 5-12.

How can I force a domain to handle all ASP calls as errors and either 404 them, or 301 them back to the front page of the site?
