Steven,

Thanks, but the post does not include the URL of the hotfix, and the KB
article ID it refers to doesn't exist (832911). In fact there doesn't
seem to be a section on the knowledge base at all for IIS 6 - it stops
at IIS 5. If this is a known problem, then surely I shouldn't have to
pay to get a simple hotfix? Additionally, do you know the URL or ID of
the article that you posted (as below) as I can't find that on the
knowledge base either.

Thanks,

Nick...
