Sitebuilder 2.3 doesn't work

I developed 3 sites with Sitebuilder 2.1 with no problems. The user interface is the best I've ever seen anyplace. I developed an entire 9 page site without ever looking at HELP or the user manual or calling tech support. But - they stopped supporting V 2.1 and forced everyone onto 2.2. That version didn't work for me, so they told me to upgrade to 2.3. V 2.3 apparently doesn't work for anyone. I have it on 2 computers and it doesn't work on either. As soon as I do anything requiring file access, machine usage shhots up t0 100% and stays there, and Sitebuilder freezes up. Yahoo support can't help - they just insist nothing is wrong.

It seems a lot of people are having issues with this. There is not too much that I can offer that Yahoo support can / did.

Have you tried Microsoft Expressions Web Designer? I have usually always used Frontpage but I just started with Expressions and it seems to be pretty good

Corey - you mentioned using Expressions. I looked at a demo yesterday and it didn't mention anything about any wysiwyg features. I admit I didn't watch the whole demo, but I watched enough to think that wysiwyg isn't the main act.

Does MS provide any support for Frontpage? I couldn't find anything about that on their site.

Expressions is a WYSIWYG editor. Frontpage 2003 is being phased out and Expressions is the new name for the program that Microsoft is creating.

I have been using Expressions for the past few days and I will say I am thoroughly impressed

Maybe you have too many programs running at once. I know if I have more than a few programs running while I have sitebuilder running my computer slows down and sometimes sitebuilder crashes.
