This handler works if the user request to some.txt file inside virtual dir
redirected to aspnet_isapi.dll. Only in this case this handler works. But
requests to *.txt files by default dose not redirected to any ISAPI
extension
and thus file content displayed by IE. To redirect requests to txt file to
ASP.NET runtime to I need add IIS mapping "*.txt -> aspnet_isapi.dll"

Main problem how can I do this by program code?
