john5 - you can read headers in ASP on IIS by using the Request object. I am not in a position to test it, but I think 'Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_IF-MODIFIED-SINCE")' would return the date GoogleBot is asking for you to check.

You would then check that internally and if your page has not changed return 'Response.Status="304 Not Modified"' and 'Response.End'. If it has changed simply return the page as normal.
