Re: Post-SP2: How to view SHTML file on hard drive with IE?

Thanks for your post. A separate server may become a necessity. My index
page is HTML and has the SHTML links. When the HTML page is loaded after a
reboot, IE will usually show a "content blocked" message. When this happens,
I can allow the content, which lets IE load the SHTML - until the original
HTML page is closed. After that, IE won't open SHTML pages again until the
computer is rebooted and the "content blocked" message appears again.
