Recently I realized that applications CAN use port 80 to remove the need for ":8080", though if I try to set the port to 80 I get a crash ...

Singletons in web- or WCF-services
Hello, for a while I wonder if it is a good idea to store some data in a singleton when writing a web-(or WCF)service. The goal is to reuse this information in different calls of the service.

Using a webservice with vbscript - "An operations error occurred."
