Instead of disabling CRL's, you should publish them to a directory, rather than an HTTP server. In the case of MSAD, the CRL will be replicated to every domain controller in the domain. The CRL can specify a ldap:///path_to_crl.crl CRL which will allow a client to lookup the CRL from any domain controller which is up.
