  • Internet Information Services (IIS) has changed the default setting for response buffering in version 5.0. In version 4.0, response buffering was off by default; in 5.0, it is on by default. ASP pages that are migrated from a Site Server 3.0 Commerce Edition site to a Commerce Server 2000 site should take this into account.
