>>As far as I've axperienced, it works with all browsers since it's the server that does the translation. The only problem I can think about is if an older browser resolved the IP address, then tried to access the site through the IP address (not sure if they do though). I wouldn't think so since this is how Unix based web servers have been doing things from day one.

Indeed, it is. However, to get this information, I had to get in touch with someone at MS (free since I met him at a seminar) and exchanged e-mails for about a week to make sure we both understood what we were asking of each other. I had tried looking in the MS docs for this, but never found anything. I don't know if they're keeping this secret or what (go figure why though!). At least we are now 2 to spread the ways of wisdon with IIS!
