Publishing problem - help!

[Ran]

I cannot publish FrontPage sites from my new PC and need suggestions
for what to try next. Here's some background and info on what I have
done so far:

The hard drive in my old Windows 98se PC crashed a few days ago so I
broke down and bought a new one with Windows XP Media Center and loaded
my old FrontPage 2000 software. Everything works wonderfully well - at
least until I try to upload a site.

When I enter my URL and click to upload, I get the standard, usual
popup box asking for my name and password. But after entering the info,
when I click "OK" , the box just keeps coming back - no error code or
details option, so I don't know what's wrong.

It am pretty certain this is not a hosting issue (until now, never a
problem for the 3 years plus I have been with them). FP extensions are
installed and were working perfectly on all my sites just a few days
ago.

I have tried to upload a brand new website that I built from scratch
website on this PC, and also updates to an old site - and tried to load
them on active sites and also "dummy" domains that I own. I got the
exact same result everywhere.

I have already checked with Microsoft and Windows to make sure my FP
and Windows XP software is fully updated. I turned off my Norton
Security / firewall and that did not help.

I would really appreciate any advice, ideas or suggestions. I don't
know what else to try.

I had sort of the same problem. Don't know if this will help you, but
when I ran FrontPage 2002 software on my XP pro system, it would not
work at all. Could not use "themes", could not alter "themes". My fix
was to purchase a full version bona-fide FP 2003 and it worked fine
with my system, UNTIL I switched to direcway satellite (from dial-up).
I know this is not a great solution, but you might want to try
purchasing FP 2003, (I got it on ebay for $65. including shipping!). It
should work fine then. I'm still having a problem accessing my web
sites, and when you said "When I enter my URL and click to upload, I
get the standard, usual
popup box asking for my name and password. But after entering the info,

when I click "OK" , the box just keeps coming back - no error code or
details option, so I don't know what's wrong. " >?>>> this same thing
is happening with me. I even changed web hosters since one was going
out of biz anyway, but still cannot access. I'm going to wait until
Monday when the nameservers had their 72 hrs. to change. Any
suggestions or possible solutions from anyone???
