Hotfix Patch for ASP.NET Compilation Issues
If you often run into runtime exceptions as a result of ASP.NET 2.0 compilation, you might want to try out this hotfix.
Scott Guthrie has a blog post describing the compilation bug and offers a workaround for these issues (besides the hotfix solution).
Word of advice here is that only apply the hotfix patch if you really have an ASP.NET compilation issue.
