Hello Bob,
I can access that site but when I click "sign in", I get cannot find server.

I installed the AxtiveX again!

I can see / download templates but there are no pictures, only "no image"
icons with red cross in the corner. Other parts on MS sites are OK!

Hi Mel,

Check to see if you are still having trouble getting to
http://officebeta.iponet.net/ (the online portion of
the Office 2007 beta). The site seems to be prone to some downtime on weekends.

Also check that your firewall is set to allow the Office apps through.

Hello Milly,

Yes that works - that how I downloaded the installation file. It's only
after when I am running Office apps that I have trouble accessing the the
"online" bits, templates, etc. NB the ActiveX add-in is installed / enabled.
