MOSS default.aspx issue

My client has a site redone in MOSS. The headache with this is it adds a default.aspx to all default pages.

Now my domain URL is example.com/default.aspx instead of example.com This is bad with search engines. Search engines tend to consider this as a different domain. The old PR 5 is now lost.

MOSS has builtin features I guess which can rewrite URLs. Also, third party software is available which runs on IIS to rewrite URLs
