I'd suggest implementing a 3rd party component. We use http://urlrewriter.net/ quite a bit and I've been very impressed with it. If you decide to go this route and end up having any issues with the setup, let us know.

It's not difficult in asp.net to use the ASP.NET built in methods to do url rewriting.

Also, if you wish to stray away from this method, just add a check at the beginning of each page.

 Help with Code Tags 
 vb.net Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
Dim idSplit = request.serverVariables("SCRIPT_NAME").split("/")
Dim id = idSplit(idSplit.length - 1)
Dim page = idSplit(idSplit.length - 2)
 
If page = "demo.aspx" And Not id Is Nothing Then
    'there's a querystring.
End If
Dim idSplit = request.serverVariables("SCRIPT_NAME").split("/")
Dim id = idSplit(idSplit.length - 1)
Dim page = idSplit(idSplit.length - 2)

If page = "demo.aspx" And Not id Is Nothing Then
    'there's a querystring.
End If

This is not a very effective way, but if it is small and minimal people are using it, it can be an easy solution.
