Turn off thumbnails in Windows Explorer (View Folder Options) and stop opening your local FP site outside of FP

| How do I pull the Thumb out - permanently?
|
| For months, I have overcome this problem by running a
| Search for *thumbs.*, and deleting every found file -
| then Presto!  I publish perfectly.  =}
|
| Recently (three days), I have not met with success using
| this simple resolution.  I resorted to opening every file
| on my source & destination webs in futile search of the
| offender, to no avail.  ={
|
| I have tried variations on the search string, and myriad
| other creative (or at least I think so...) approaches,
| and I still get the following error (yes, I am
| intentionally publishing everything - not just changed
| pages):
|
| "Server error:  The server extensions were unable to
| access the file ".Thumbs.db.tmp".  Please check the file
| permissions."
|
| Well, if I could find the file to check the permissions,
| I would just delete it!  Are there permissions for FPSE
| 2002 I can adjust to override this condition?  The last
| thing I recall having done that might be related was
| responding to the Server prompt to "Tighten security as
| much as possible."  It seemed like a good idea at the
| time....
|
| Phugma!
|
| Thanks in advance,
|

| In the future, DO NOT view your local copy of the web
| using windows explorer.  Do all of you image work outside
| of the wb and then import the images.  This will eliminate
| thumbs.db from coming back
