Whatever do you mean?  I haven't configured Zope at all.  It was installed
using the straight binary installer, with no thought of IIS in mind.  It ran
fine for a long time.  Today I installed IIS onto Win2000 SP2.  When I set
up a virtual folder in IIS to redirect to the Zope installation, the url
that the browser displays is in fact the one I would have typed to get to
Zope directly.

I run another (java) special-purpose server on port 8000.  I just configured
another IIS virtual folder to redirect to it.  I get the same results, which
shows that it has nothing to do with Zope configuration.

Tell us why you think there's a proxy involved, would you?  Because it sure
looks like a redirect to me.
