    ValidateRequest=False "sort of" ignored

    I just downloaded the CuteSoft editor for evaluation purposes and am experiencing a strange problem.  I have the editor on a popup aspx page that I open from my main webform passing the popup window some HTML via querystring.  I have set validaterequest = False on the popup webform so .NET won't give me the usual warning/error message.

    Problem is that when the popup webform (with the editor) opens, for about one (1) second I see .NET's warning about how "A potentially dangerous Request.QueryString value was detected from the client" inside CuteSoft's editor window.  Then the warning disappears and everything works fine.  Interestingly, even though I see this warning in IE, I don't see it in Firefox.

    This .NET warning is appearing on both my localhost and the temporary development webserver I have put CuteSoft editor on (purely for testing purposes).

    Any ideas on what's going on?

    Thank you,
    Ben
