How to handle bad requests in asp.net

Question

I am using asp.net 3.5, there are some requests with special characters (for example ./ and <) return "bad request" by asp.net application, it looks like the Application_Error method in Global.asax.cs cannot handle these errors, are there any other methods to handle these request errors?

http://localhost/abc./abc.aspx

http://localhost/ab<c.aspx
