Hi Peter,

I am not sure if this an issue with ajax. This is replicable in a simple page with a TextBox and a Button controls:

    
            <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %> 
        
            <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
        
            <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > 
        
            <head runat="server"> 
        
                <title>Untitled Page</title> 
        
            </head> 
        
            <body> 
        
                <form id="form1" runat="server"> 
        
                <div> 
        
                    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> 
        
                    <asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button" /> 
        
                </div> 
        
                </form> 
        
            </body> 
        
            </html>

After submitting you should receive:
"A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (TextBox1="<abcd")." error.

Check it out.
