An Exchange Storeis the structure maintaining mailbox and public folder data. The Store is exposed to programmers through something called the Exchange OLE DB Provider (ExOLEDB) which registers with the OLE RootBinder to allow it to be accessed through a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). URLs to access the Exchange Store are prefixed: file://./BackOfficeStorage/ MS Exchange.org (http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Exchange-2003-Http-Access-Part1.html) Because of this you do not have access to the asp file in question. So to determine the specific reason for the error you would have to contact Microsoft. Why are you manually changing values in the URL? What are you trying to accomplish?

Hi Mindsec, I suspect that you may use third party browser while getting this error. please confirm whether it is in Internet Explorer, or third party browser (such as Mozilla Firefox). According to my experience, VB script should be executed at client not at Server. Meanwhile, I have confirmed that it is by-designed safety behavior, so please dont worry about it. Thanks, Jason
