Front Page Publishing Error messages.

[Qaisar Qayyum]

It all started three days earlier. While publishing my site using Front Page
2003 I started getting the following error message:

===========================
The server could not complete your request.
Contact your Internet service provider or Web server administrator to make
sure that the
server has Front Page Server Extensions or SharePoint Services installed.

For more specific information, click the Details button.
===========================

On clicking Details button it further says:

===========================
Network Error
Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred:
"" The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems
preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a
later time. For assistance, contact Customer Support.
===========================

What I Have Done Till Now:

1. Tried to publish about 16 times during last three days at different times.
2.Uninstalled Front Page Extensions and Reinstalled Front Page Extentions
and tried to publish the whole site again, but received the same error
message.
3.Using Cute FTP deleted all directories starting with "_" (UNDERSCORE) ,
uninstalled & Reinstalled FP Extensions, but received same error message.
4.Reinstalled Front Page Extensions - same results.

On Installing Front Page extensions Following message was displayed in CPanel:

We've got the exact same problem here!

Our 2000 advance server just quit allowing anyone
to publish frontpage webs. We are hosting about
10 webs.

We are now considering just dumping Frontpage
completely?!?!?!?!

What has changed on the server, what updates have been applied since the last time someone was able
to publish?

What firewall application or Anti-Virus application have been installed on the client machine and/or
server, etc?

Over the last year, we have only updated the
server with critical updates.

We are not using any type of firewall or anti-virus
programs on the server.

Strange thing: one user can upload single files,
(one at a time), but when he tries to publish
the whole site, it just sends a couple of files,
then stops.

So, what makes you feel you don't have an infected or compromised server?

[Captain]

It "could" be compromised now,(but that is not what I think would
of caused this).

After no-one could log in to make changes anymore, we removed
the anti-virus, moved the server from out behind the firewall, blew
up the dir, created new login accounts, but still no-one can log in
and make changes?!?!?!

Note: Is there is straight forward check list somewhere, that I
could use to make sure I'm setting up the permissions correctly
for a frontpage web?
