Updating .config files with autodeploy

I have an autodeploy application (a X.Exe file executed from IE) which download on the client a X.Exe.Config file, since I've put in web.config the following item:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<httpHandlers>
<add verb=&quot;*&quot; path=&quot;*.config&quot; type=&quot;System.Web.StaticFileHandler&quot; />
</httpHandlers>
</system.web>
</configuration>

My problem is: when I change this .config file, how can the client get the new version?
(Without clearing the IE cache)

I was looking for an alternative to System.Web.StaticFileHandler, but I can't find anything. I can even find out where System.Web.StaticFileHandler is defined ... what it is ... it should be a class ...

Thanks for help
Alessandro
