We are informed by the ISP that our website front page has a funny URL= xxx in the IFRAME block. It does not do any harm and probably some advertising stuff sneaked into page. Some search engines and newer browsers think it is a phishing site and gives a warning. We fixed that and now is Ok.

We went into Vista and get the Tornado + VS2005 going. Vista is really a desktop O/S like XP but the heavy security setup made it very difficult to work as a Web development tool. While the Classic ASP, ASP-db works, the DCOM components has so much security and it is not getting through. You cannot copy a file into the dir without the system telling you that the file does not belong to you. You have to run the development stuff in administrative mode and if you forget to do that, you spent the whole day figuring out what is wrong. IIS has be run in a compatibility mode for VS to work. Trying to install Vista in upgrade mode is a disaster, do not do that - install a clean copy and build it up. Looks like we have to wait for SP2 like XP before everything work. I'll compose a ASP-db + Vista write-up to provide some pain relief.

We plan to drop the DotNet 1.1 and provide 2.0 versions beginning the next release. Let me know if there is any problem with that.
