Hi Don,

I took a look at your site on 3 different machines, and 3 different
browsers:

1. Windows Server 2003/IE 6: None of the links would show up.
2. Windows XP Pro./IE 6: None of the links would show up
3. Windows XP Pro/Netscape 7: First 2 links would not show up. 3rd link did.
4. Mac/IE 6: None of the links would show up.
5. Mac/Safari: First 2 links would not show up. 3rd link did.

All of the links did not include a file name, only a directory name. On the
Mac, in IE, the status bar indicated that the first 2 links were redirecting
to "Login.aspx" - so your problem most likely lies in that page. As for the
3rd link, which apparently led to a page with 2 labels on it, it didn't seem
to redirect. Interestingly, it would not show up in IE 6 on any machine. I
have to wonder what the code is on that page. It seems like something is
browser-aware on the server side, and sending something IE6 can't parse, or
reacting to the browser in such a way that it doesn't send a response.
