Can anyone provide some insight on what this problem could be? I have
searched the web, read forums, and all the installation documentation for
the dotnetnuke feeware portal from asp.net. I am very confident that all
the security settings have been configured correctly. My setup is a Windows
XP 5.1, MSDE SP3, and VS2003.

I'm not familiar with the setup of DotNetNuke, but did you mean to declare
your HttpHandler in the httpModules section?

is there a parent directory with it's own web.config?
I *think* you can change the name w/o adversely affecting dotnetnuke
else
insert a <remove name="HTTPHandler"> before the <add
