If you disable Allow Anonymous Access on Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) version 4.0, you will not be able to verify links in FrontPage Explorer. For example, if you click Verify Hyperlinks on the Tools menu in FrontPage Explorer, the progress meter shows zero percent. To cancel the operation, click the Stop button or press the ESC key.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, use version 3.0.2.1330 or later of the Server Extensions.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, turn on the Allow Anonymous Access option on the IIS version 4.0 server.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products Listed at the beginning of this article.
