Wicked HTTP Compression Module Beta Release
I am working on updating my ASP.NET HTTP Compression Module. There has been a lot of work going into this release. First, the code has been dusted off, recompiled, and tested again. Long time requests for features and bug fixes have been addressed.

Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4.0 Support

The code has been updated to compile under Visual Studio 2010 targeting .NET Framework 4.0. This includes using the latest base classes as well as support for ASP.NET AJAX.

ScriptResourceHandler Support

Updates to get out of the way of the ScriptResourceHandler. ScriptResourceHandler supports compression and this can be used with the Wicked HTTP Compression Module.

BlogEngine 1.6.1 Tested!

This version has been extensively tested with BlogEngine 1.6.1!

SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Native Hosting Tested!

Tested the use of the Wicked HTTP Compression Module with SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Native Hosting.

Bug Fix! Proper filtering of excluded paths based on the application base url

Paths were not properly excluded unless the application was at the root directory.

Bug Fix! No compression when an error has occurred!

Finally found this one! It took a while. IMHO, the error page should be able to be compressed. Unfortunately some browsers flake out in this situation.
