publishing problems since upgrading to DSL

[Matt]

I posted part of this yesterday but for some reason it never showed up
in my news agent. Ever since we've upgraded to DSL we've been unable to
publish our site. Initially it just seems to hang at the "Listing pages
in file C:///My Documents/My Webs/Greenes". But now it gives me the
following error message every time I try to publish The server sent a
response which front page could not parse. If you are trying to connect
to a front page server, check with the servers administrator to make
sure the front page server extensions are properly installed." I've
uninstalled/cleaned/and reinstalled the extensions and then had the
hosting company check things out and they can't find any initial
problems. I've removed all the old dial-up internet connection
information from the computer and there isn't any type of firewall
running.

Any ideas?

see if you can open the web "live". just hit file/ open web/ ..... type in
the http:// address of your site.

Check w/ your DSL provider to see if they are blocking Port 80
- some do it to prevent you from hosting a site

Thanks for all the help. Apparently it was my provider... they were in
the middle of upgrading their DSL from 1.5 to 3 and apparently it was
affecting the connection in some strange manor? They never really said
what or why, but it started working again after the update was completed
in my area.
