Restful web services and WebDAV dont play nice together - blocks PUT and DELETE

We relearned a lesson at work that I want to capture
We are using a lot of RESTful services in our current development

If you have WebDAV enabled in Windows, it gets added to the default web site
WebDAV consumes verbs that restful services like to use

There are two ways to turn it off
1) In the web.config file, it can be removed in the handlers section
2) in IIS, under the application modules (Feature view) you can remove it from each application

Ugh!
