RE: IIS problems

I'll implement your suggestions during the turkey-day holiday, then respond
with results. I did run some interim tests with odd results...

Browser           http://localhost  http://127.0.0.1
IE4               will not resolve  will not resolve
Communicator 4.7    will resolve    will not resolve

Communicator will pull up the default Web page and display it only if I use
the loopback domain name. One more oddity: IE will actually display a page
if I double-click an HTML file, but images will not display unless they are
coded in the page using IFRAME instead of IMG.
