The assembly it references does exist in the GAC.... other applications use
the assembly too. But the same assembly is also in the bin. Because the
asp.net app does not find it unless it too exists in the bin..... anyway..
between the instlls this bin and the parent web folder are removed but the
old one still seems to exist. I have tested on a machine that predates the
latest services packs and it happened to me again.. :P maybe my firs ttime
fix did not solve it to begin with.. but no matter it would be nice to
figure out a solution to this..
