We have a website that is set up to allow our employees to
click a link to a .exe file to download and install a
client application. It works fine under Windows 2000
Server and IIS 5.0 But on the new server running Server
2003 and IIS 6.0 the users get an error:

HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

How do I correct this to allow the clients to download and
install the app.?
