Web site was working, now you have to go to the web address TWO times in the same browser windows before it comes up. This happenes internally and externally.

Syntax for website is:
www.webpage.com/directory/default.asp

Web site security: anonymous allowed.
NTFS settings on files: Everyone - Full

Any ideas?

Sounds like a cache problem. Can you hit refresh and get to the web site after going the 1st time? If hitting refresh works, I would say check your cache settings on your proxy(?). You could also try adding your web site address into your "hosts"file on your local machine and see it that makes a difference.

This file is usually in the winnt\system32\drivers\etc folder on NT/2K or windows\drivers (I believe) for Win9x. If this file is changed, when you point your browser to this site, itshould go automatically. The system looks inside the "hosts" file first, before going to the DNS entries. Hope this helps a little. Roger

Same thing happened to me too. I was testing certificates and secure connections. When I returned to the defaults the behaviour disappeared. I thought it was a problem about the IE cache.
