501 errors due to Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600We have been seeing an increasing number of hits to our website using
the Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600 user agent. The server returns a 501 not implemented error. WebDAV is not running on the IIS6 webserver. We are seeing over 3000 entries a day. here is a record from the logfile: 2006-07-27 04:01:08 PROPFIND /FRAMEWORKS - - 129.44.181.228 Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600 - - 501 0 0 138 Does anyone know the cause? Does anyone else see these records in their log files? I have read that it is from MS-Office applications trying to see if the file can be saved back to the web. I have also read that Front Page Clients can be the source. That's standard webdav redirector request, this is pretty common in today
