Frontpage 2002 does not prompt for credentials

[David]

I recently installed Office XP with Frontpage and am trying to "Open Web" on
my website. on my old system it would prompt me for my credentials and I
would be able to go to the Folders view, etc.

This instance does not prompt me for credentials it looks like it is
connecting and then gives the error:
"The folder 'WEBSITE' isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an
unavailable location, protected with a password, or a filename contains a /
or \."

I have gone online and can't find much. I made sure my Internet Options was
set to Prompt for Username/Password compared to Anonymous Login.

Any assistance woudl be helpful.

I have IE7 running on Windows XP... I also have Firefox installed and again
this is Office XP with Frontpage.

Thank you,
David
