Is there any way to remedy this?You should be able to edit your ErrorMessages.db file and replace thedefault response with something using [ReturnRaw] to give a 404.The only problem might be with newlines, which are required in the MIMEheaders, but might screw up your database. Using an [include] instead ofcoding directly into ErrorMessages.db should take care of that problem, Ithink.-Daveo--------------- Dave MacLeay --+o----------- Digital Frontier --+o--------------- 802.253.8612 --+o--- dave@digitalfrontier.com --+
