RE: DTD downloads breaking on anything

Hi Ted.

I appreciate the response but I wasn't talking about MSXML, I was  
talking about the built in System.Xml.XmlTextReader class which is  
native .NET code and doesn't rely on MSXML.

I've opened a bug with MS also about this issue, however, I just  
wanted you to realize it's possible you broke a very large number  
of .NET applications with your recent change (anything that uses  
XmlDocument, XmlTextReader, etc with its default settings will try to  
download DTDs).

Steve,

Regarding your MSXML .NET applications, please see this comment on our  
DTD traffic article which has link to upgrade that will fix the issue.
