 * Hey Guys,
 * Got a big issue for you. We have an ISAPI Rewrite Module setup on our server (
   IIS 6) and the recommended RewriteRule’s on the WordPress site work great.
 * Except when you actually have a directory that you want to act as virtual. For
   example, I have a page in WordPress that I want to be [http://www.example.com/news](http://www.example.com/news).
   Now we have a physical directory “news” where we store all our newsletter pdfs.
   So that we don’t have to rewrite a bunch of links, it’d be great if we could 
   keep the pdf’s in the directory and use a virtual page for that URL as there’s
   no index file in the directory.
 * Thanks for any help in Advance!
