I can't use Frontpage 98. I get an error saying there is no server at port 80.

Please help

Do you have any web servers installed like IIS or Personal Web Server ?

You need to upgrade to Windows XP Professional.

Check your firewall settings. FP98 works fine in XP. One of the common
issues is having to reset the FP extensions depending on your server.

Thanks! I turned off my Norton Firewall and Frontpage is now working.

FP 98 requires a web server to operated. WinXP home does not support a MS
web server or FP server extensions.

You can install FP98 via custom install, and do *not* install the FP web
server, then try running disk based webs.

Very quirky at best.

Irrelevant. PWS is not included in XP Home, nor is IIS. Further,
neither is supported.
