  2. Hi,
    Are you using an old Front Page tool?
    If so go to http://www.asp.net and download the free Visual Web Developer.
    When you FTP from it don't specify any folder and your directory structure will be intact.
    Yes the root is already an Application, from the Control Panel you can do that for Sub folders.
    As for FP extensions, don't do that unless you absolutely need them.
    They are not needed if you use the Website FTP tools in VWD.
    All the best,
    Mark
