I expect you have a relative url problem. If your form looks like:

<FORM ACTION="/mysite.com/cgi-bin/mtscript.cgi" METHOD="POST">

then because Internet Explorer cum OE regards C: as the root the path is wrong. As you no doubt know you can use IE to browse your system OR the web thus it needs to decide is the path a local one C:\ one an http:// one. Default is C:

Asuming this is right it will work if you add http:// to make it a full path.

Monks have been known to burn in the fires of Hades for asking off topic posts. Hopefully the gods will be kind to us. Cringe.
