Is xspisapi.dll still needed in 2003

[DazedAndConfused]

Is this still required to prevent users from downloading source files?



<!-- PREVENT SOURCE CODE DOWNLOAD

This section sets the types of files that will not be downloaded. As well as
entering

a httphandler for a file type, you must also associate that file type with
the xspisapi.dll

in the App Mappings property of the web site, or the file can be downloaded.

It is recommended that you use this section to prevent your sources being
downloaded.
