the frontpage team are looking at it now - as sean noted, the iis codebase
in pws does not have this issue. i'll fwd more info to this alias as soon as
i get more info from the fp team.

Hello,

Sorry if this has already been known. But i didn't find something of the
sort.
While playing with Microsoft Personal Web Server
(Frontpage-PWS32/3.0.2.926).
I found that the following URL will list the root directory and be able to
download any file you want.
http://www.victim.com/....../


That seems to be fixed in the windows98 version of PWS

(http://24.231.6.49/....../ returns server error 161)
