well, quite frankly this -rwxrwxrwx does not seem to have any impact, I only got that from my ftp-program, I'm aware that the server is on Win NT, but I only have ftp access to it. the first redirection is in intern.htm, the file contains only `<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://www.lent.ch/intern/cgi-bin/main.cgi">` [download] the second one is in main.cgi and looks like this: `<td> <a href='/../intern/cgi-bin/folder.cgi?intern/$file'> $file </a></td>` so its just a simple html-link, but these don't work with IE. However, if I create a link to a regular html-file (inside the protected folder), this works fine.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

The second URL is suspect. Have you tried to remove the first part, like: `<a href='/intern/cgi-bin/folder.cgi?intern/$file'>` [download] This should give you an absolute URL `http://www.lent.ch/intern/cgi-bin/folder.cgi?intern/$file` which I suspect is what you need. Take also into consideration mangling `$file` to escape bad characters that may tamper the final URL. Flavio (perl -e "print(scalar(reverse('ti.xittelop@oivalf')))") Don't fool yourself.
