I have recently change web host providers. Ever since, I have been unable
to login using FrontPage. I can access my web host provider using ftp, but
when I attempt to access the system through FrontPage I receive repeated
username and password prompts. I have worked on this for several hours with
my provider but they have left me with "its not their problem - everything
works on their end". Their last suggestion was that I try to access my web
from another machine.

My machine uses Windows XP and FrontPage2002. I tried to login to my web on
three different machines with the following results:
1) Successful on a machine that has Windows 98 and FrontPage 2002
2) Successful on a machine that has Windows 2002 and FrontPage 2002
3) Unsuccessful on a different machine that has Windows XP and FrontPage
2002.

Is there an option or security setting in Windows XP that I may need to
change that is preventing me from logging into my web? Any suggestions are
helpful since I believe I have run out of resources from my web host
provider.

Thanks in advance for any responses received
 
Compare the network settings between the Win 200o and Win XP machines

The KB article 250376 refers to IE 5.0 and IE 4.0. I'm currently using IE
6.0. Does this matter?
