I would call back server Admin and ask them to take off FrontPage Extensions :)
However, Windows2000 is pretty good at transferring files in the correct
format. I actually use the Windows Explorer as my ftp client, and it
handles cgi and pl scripts just fine.
Plus, if you're using Network Places to transfer data around, it means
you're going through the local network, which means you're transferring
files in much the same way as you move them from one folder to another --
ie, you've got nothing to worry about :)
