How to crash Googlebot (and fix it)

If you have recently implemented an EPiServer 4.60 or 4.61 site and have found that Google is no longer indexing your site, then the problem may be with the friendly URLs and an underlying Microsoft.Net 2.0 issue.

A colleague of mine, Nick Urry recently came across this issue with a site he developed. He has written a great post on how to diagnose, reproduce, and most importantly, fix the issue. Nick's article can be found here.

Sorry if you thought this was some instructions on how to crash Googlebot, even though you can, why would you want to?
