Description

This renders much of my site useless. For students with office 2007 (possibly other browser/office combos too) and IE7, powerpoint and word files will not save or open. There is a message saying that the site could not be found. Firefox works flawlessly for the same files.

I'm not able to get to the server for a week or so and can't check the logs,

I do, but only for login.

I'm on win2k3, apache 2.0 phpinfo now attached. I will examine the server logs as soon as I can.
