title: Filtering input to avoid "A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client"
body: <p>I have an internal application (not accessible from outside our network) that has a multi-line textbox. Users (co-workers) have been known to copy/paste text from Outlook or MS Word into this textbox that includes an email address. When that happens they get this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the
    client (ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$txtIssueDesc="... Name &lt;
    email@domain...").</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>We're using VB.NET v3.5 on MS Visual Studio 2008.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to strip out what's between the &lt; > before the error is tripped so it can be put into the database then edited later without any problems?</p>
