Thanks for the help Oleg, So, does the user get an error page or is the server just sending me an error cause it is requesting a file that does not exist. I will try testing with IT (it is not effecting my Mac IE 4.5/5.0) J

So even though there are no references to it in the HTML MIE is looking for it? Is there anyway to fool it? Can I just put a blank DTML Document? Why would MIE be checking the server for that file?
Becasue if it finds the file in a directory it would display it - and site admin could put different icons in different directories. Return error 404 should be enough, if there is no such files.
