In Visual Studio 2003/Windows .NET Framework 1.1 (Codename: Everett) when using ASP.NET XML Web services, note that HTTP GET is turned off by default, presumably for security reasons.

Here's how to turn it back on...add this to your web.config:

<webServices>
   <protocols>
      <add name="HttpGet" />
   </protocols>
</webServices>
