    How do I allow access to axd files in a protected folder (forms authentication)

    Hello,

    I have a folder protected by Windows Forms Authentication, and this
    works fine. However, I want to use a control on the log in page in this
    folder, and this control is configured as an httpHandler, which means
    the web page sees it as an .axd file.

    Trouble is, the control isn't working in the protected folder. It works
    elsewhere, and I'm 99% certain that the problem is that the call to the
    ..axd is being blocked as it's in the protected folder.

    How do I get around this? Is there a way of specifying that a certain
    file name, or at least a certain extension is allowed in the folder,
    even though it's protected?

    Thanks
