Question : Using "Add a Network Place" wizard to add an Internet site

If I try to add an Internet site using the "Add a Network Place" wizard I get the message "The folder does not appear to be valid. Please choose another."  Other my other computers get the standard username and password access box.

I discovered this trying to add my websites in Frontpage 2003.  There I get the error: "The folder 'http://www.websiteaddress/' isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable location, protected with a password, or the filename contains a / or \."  I am able to edit and access the site if I click on Edit in Frontpage in IE.

This is a new install of Windows XP (sp2), Office 2003, and Frontpage 2003.  I've tried again after disabling the firewall and nothing was different.

Am I just missing an obvious setting or service somewhere?

Hey, I haven't helped yet. But thanks for the appreciation.

One more thing.

Back to (control Panel) Internet Options, Security tab,  Internet Zone, hit Custom level, and look down near the bottom -

User Authentication - it should be something other than 'Anonymous'. "auto only in intranet' or 'prompt'. would be good.

I'll keep looking.
