SYMPTOMS
When you click Publish on the FrontPage 2000 File menu, and then you click the WPP's button in the Publish destination dialog box to view a list of Web Presence Providers (WPPs), the Web site may not be displayed correctly in Internet Explorer. For example, you may not be prompted by Internet Explorer to add the site to the Trusted sites zone, and therefore the Web site is blank.

<div class="cause_section">

CAUSE
This issue may occur if the Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration feature is enabled. By default, this feature is enabled in Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2003-based computers.

This enhanced level of security may prevent certain Web sites from displaying as expected in Internet Explorer. For example, programs that require the Web browser may not work as expected because scripts, ActiveX controls, and downloads are disabled.

<div class="resolution_section">

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods, as appropriate to your situation.

Method 1: Add the Web Sites to the Trusted Sites Zone in Internet Explorer

MORE INFORMATION
The Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration feature configures several security settings that define how you access Internet and intranet Web sites. This configuration also reduces the exposure of your server to Web sites that may pose a security risk. To access a Web site that requires Internet Explorer functionality that is disabled by the Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration feature, add that Web site to the Trusted sites zone in Internet Explorer.

For more information about Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration, see the Internet Explorer &quot;Enhanced Security Configuration&quot; Help topic. To do so on a computer that is running Windows Server 2003, start Internet Explorer, and then on the Help menu, click Enhanced Security Configuration.
