Do you use Microsoft FrontPage? Ever wonder how to change
your password? Here's how.
1. Connect to Internet, then Start the FrontPage 2000 program,
title bar will say Microsoft FrontPage
2. Click FILE on the menu then choose "Open Web..."

http://YOUR_WEB_ADDRESS/
Replace YOUR_WEB_ADDRESS with the URL of YOUR web site, for
example, "www.wso.net". Then click the Open button. Remember
to put the http:// part before the web address and the ending
slash after.
4. Type in your FrontPage username and password.
5. Your web will being loading. If the "Open Web" box is still
open after your username and password are accepted, and files
appear in the box, click Open one more time.
6. Once your web loads into FrontPage, choose TOOLS from the
main menu and then pick Security... and then Change Password.

---> Relevant for WSO Palace Hosting Customers =================
================================================================
Now that Communities.com is going to discontinue support for
traditional place servers, we've created our own WSO Live Palace
Registry. This isn't just a list of palace links, it is an
automated listing of all of the active palaces hosted at WSO,
similar to Communities registry.
Currently only Palace Servers that are hosted at WSO and that
are on one of our new servers are included (all WSO hosted
Palaces will be included eventually as they are upgraded).
Check out the new WSO Live Palace Server Registry:
http://www.wso.net/palace.mv
We welcome your input and ideas to make the registry better.
Remember to remind your palace owner fiends that WSO is still
offering quality, affordable, and reliable Palace Server
hosting. Plus, you can get credit toward your own account! For
more information check out the information on our referral
program here:
