you are getting an include page error:
The include file '/mywebsites/secure/_private/logon.inc' was not found.
That's because you are working in a subweb and your host need to turn on parent pathing for virtual includes to work

| Just a thought, what links to the logon.asp page? I read the code, and
| nothing seems to ever make mention to it. That seems like an important page,
