Cause:

Microsoft recently (12-29-2011) released an update to address several serious security vulnerabilities in the .NET Framework. MS11-100 was introduced just recently that handles potential DoS attacks.

Unfortunately the fix has also broken page POSTs with very large amounts of posted data (form fields). MS11-100 places a limit of 500 on postback items. The new default max introduced by the recent security update is 1000.

Adding the setting key to the web-config file overcomes this limitation, as in this example increases it to 2000.

  <appSettings>
    <add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="2000" />
</appSettings>
