problems opening web in FP2000

[Guest]

I am trying to open a web in FP2000. I have recently changed web hosts and I
assume this is the reason I can't open a web. I go to file / open web /
select website. It comes up with the message: The server sent a response
which FP could not parse. If you are trying to connect to a FP server, check
with ther server's admin to make sure FP extensions are installed properly (I
have been assured that they are installed properly). If I try to use a
different web (same site, different name), I get the message: the folder
"http://www.website.com" isn't accessible. The folder may be loacted on an
unavailbe volume or protected with a password. Is this my web hosts problem
or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Alison

Does the site open in Internet Explorer??

If so, in IE click File > Edit with FrontPage.

What windows version??

Also, open my network places and remove and references to the web site that may exist there and then
try.

Yes, I've tried that, but it only opens the page not the web

Windows XP Pro. No references to the website in network places.

Go here: http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm
and download FP Cleaner ( it's free ) and run the functions
that clear the Cache {.web } files and the FrontPage Temporary files.
Tell it no, do not start FrontPage after you click the Close button.

Then Click Start > Run and type: cmd and then press OK

In the window that opens type: ipconfig /flushdns
and press enter
( note: there is a space between ipconfig and /flushdns )
When it's done close the command window
and open FrontPage and see what happens.
