We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SYMPTOMS
You can use the SPRY Mosaic Web client to connect Internet Information Server (IIS). However, if you are using basic password authentication, the SPRY Mosaic Web client will crash with the following error message:

  AIRMOSAI caused a General Protection Fault in module AIRMOS.EXE at   0006:73D6 Choose close. AIRMOSAI Will Close.

NOTE: The above problem was produced with the SPRY Mosaic - CompuServe Edition, Version: 01.00.c6.07.



CAUSE


WORKAROUND
Do not use basic password authentication or use a different Web browser.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Information Server 1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
