When I right-click on folders from my site in FrontOffice, and go down to
properties, there's 3 options that are greyed out and won't let me check
them. How do I go about enabling those options?

You must have a server based web open in order to change the folder properties.

Thanks Steve. I'm just completely stupid when it comes to stuff like this.
What exactly is a "server based web"?

A web that has been published to a public server, or that is located in IIS on your local
machine.
IIS (Internet Information Services ) is available with Windows 2000 Pro or windows XP Pro.

A web that is located on your machine, in the My documents folder or another location on
your drive is known as a Disk Based Web.

Folder property settings for a folder in a web, are only applicable when the web is on a
server, because they are actually a server setting.
