Can't access server to make website changes using FrontPage 2003

This is maybe too simple, but I can't make it work....I used to make changes
to my website on a previous computer by clicking "Edit with Microsoft
FrontPage" icon while viewing the website on Internet Explorer. It then
asked me for my log in and password, and it let me in. NOW...I'm trying to
access my web from a couple other computers, doing it the same way, and it
never brings up the login portion of the access. It displays some content of
that page, but I'm obviously not accessing the server. Any ideas? It's been
a couple months since I've accessed my site, but it should still work the
same way. I'm getting frustrated here...please help!! Thanks!
 
Best to launch FP and then use File Menu | Open Web / Site and then enter the URL, login info, etc.

Thanks Thomas...I tried opening the website directly from Frontpage, and it
still won't go. I get an error "documents in this folder are unavailable"
and "the folder may have been moved or deleted, or network problems may be
preventing a connection to the server". My site is up and working fine
online, I just can't get to it! Could it be something to do with firewalls,
or cookies, or what?? Any other suggestions??
 
Think I might have fixed the problem...I was able to access my account
through my provider's website, and I went ahead and reinstalled the Frontpage
extensions. Now it lets me login and access my site! Not sure why, but it
seems to have fixed the problem for the meantime. Thanks....
