You can redirect a specific file by right clicking the file in IIS, click "properties" and then select the radio button "A redirection to a URL. This will allow you to redirect individual pages. If contact.aspx doesn't exist in the directory anymore, just create a file named contact.aspx with notepad and then setup your redirect. Be sure to check the box that says "a permanent redirection..." | Whenever I try to redirect is through the IIS control panel by right-clicking>properties>redirect it is creating an infinite loop. |

Not sure what you mean by this... Could you elaborate please?

See this thread: Domain level 301 redirect clips the query strings [webmasterworld.com] (it describes redirecting urls and query strings at the site level). HTH.

Another option for you that I use to solve the cononical URL issue. Place this in the Global.asax Application_BeginRequest Sub. If Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_HOST") = "mydomain.com" Then
Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently"
Response.AddHeader("Location", "http://www.mydomain.com" & Request.RawUrl)
End If

Thanks friends for your replies, I have fixed the first problem, now let me share with you all how I did it: I created a site in the IIS with domain.com as the host name and then 301 redirected it [by right click > properties] to www.domain.com$S I was missing the $S part for which requests for domain.com/contact.aspx was getting redirected to www.domain.com. The redirect wasn't passing any suffixes. So I fixed that and it's working fine. Thanks again! Now the BIG problem (for me at least) How do I redirect www.domain.com/default.aspx to www.domain.com/ I have tried numerous ways of doing this, but it just doesn't work. I would be very grateful if you all can guide me through this. Thanks a lot in advance :-)

Pretty sure you need to add $Q in order to preserve the querystring on the redirect target. So for example in the "Redirect to" field you need: [domain.com$S$Q...] To redirect "/default.aspx" to "/" I think you have to use IsapiRewrite or similar.
