Several days ago, I designed a logo with transparent components, saved it as
a portable network graphic file extention, and uploaded it to a client's
website. The logo looked perfect when I viewed it on my computer (which has
IE7), but when viewed on a computer with IE6, the transparency in the
picture displays as an opaque gray. Is there any kind of fix I can perform
on the server side - perhaps some string of code I can put in my asp pages -
that will help the pngs display properly on my customers' non-ie7 computers?

There is a problem with PNG transparency on IE6 and earlier. I don't have
IE6 to test the following site to see if it's the same issue you're seeing,
but take a look at this for a possible solution:
