Answer 1

ClickOnce does not have any built-in compression support. But you can use HTTP-compression at the web-server level.

Follow these steps to enable compression under IIS7:

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config (see my comments, other lines are default)

Still not working?? Add this to the same file (by default IIS 7.0 does not compress files unless they are "frequently requested")
