    Overriding Friendly HTTP Error Messages?

    Is there any way to override the default "Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages" option, so surfers will actually be forwarded to the main page of my domain?

    Kinda shitty of Microsoft to enable that by default imo...

      Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) will by default ignore server-generated error messages when they are "too small" and substitute its own "friendly" error messages. The size threshold varies depending on the type of error, but in general, if you make your error document greater than 512 bytes, then MSIE will show the server-generated error rather than masking it. More information is available in Microsoft Knowledgebase article Q294807.
