         I don't remeber what version of IIS and service pack that had a 
security flaw related to this.
         What I remember is that if you put ::$DATA before the file.asp the 
server will let you download the source.
         I mean: http://some.server.com/main.asp::$DATA
         Will appear a box to save this file, like a download, but with the 
source code of the asp page.

oh, that's an old trick, it is very improbable to get the file this way, since patch for this flaw was issued on July 
1998

cheers :)
