Custom Post Archives bridges the gap between creating Custom Post Types in WordPress 3, and actually displaying those posts. With this plugin, you have 
the option of displaying a completely seperate blog-like section for each post type, complete with all the features you expect to see with WordPress.
For each custom post type, if you click “active” and enter a slug-name, this plugin will let you display post-type specific:
<ul>
<li>Archives</li>
<li>Date archives</li>
<li>Author archives</li>
<li>Category archives</li>
<li>RSS Feeds</li>
</ul>
This plug-in also provides many additional features to fully integrate your custom post types, including:
<ul>
<li>Adds a menu option to the new menu section created in WordPress 3 (for themes that support it)</li>
<li>Combined archives (http://www.mysite.com/type1+type2/)</li>
<li>Option to add post types to default blog</li>
<li>Option to add post types to default RSS feed</li>
<li>Adds post type support to wp_get_archives function</li>
<li>Adds multiple global functions and filters for working with custom post types (see Functions and Filters or Plugin Help for details)</li>
<li>Automatically displays the associated post type on custom taxonomy archives</li>
<li>Extends upon the WordPress templating, allowing for flexibility by theme authors (see FAQ or Plugin Help for details)</li>
<li>Automatically flushes the rewrite cache after modifications are detected</li>
<li>Automatically adds a “blog-{post_type}” type class to the body of the created archives (for themes that implement body_class())</li>
</ul>

Custom Post Archives

Custom Post Archives creates a fully featured set of archives for each post type using a robust back-end and native templating functionality.

Fed up with IIS not providing permalinks? Don’t have access to the IIS control panel on your host? Then wp-aspxrewriter is for you!
Allowing URLS such as: http://www.pynchon.net/discourse/2008/03/06/24/two-amusing-pynchon-posts.aspx this is the easiest way to enable completely pretty permalinks on IIS 6 or IIS 7.

ASPX WebRequest Rewriter

This plugin will allow 100% pretty permalinks on IIS 6/7.
