Internet Explorer on Localhost

I am having some problems with IE8 and a web domain on localhost.
If I open http://localhost/localstart.asp in IE the page opens correctly

If I open a page http://localhost:8080/mydir/index.a5w the page fails with an error
500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered a fatal error processing this request and could not continue.

I can open http://localhost:8080/mydir/index.a5w in Firefox and Safari without problems.

The domain used to run OK in IE8

The .a5w pages are running with the Alpha5 V10 server.

Does anyone know how I can get IE8 running with this server again please? IE8 runs normally otherwise.

Thank you
John

Thanks scrathcyboy
After two months of having the problem with the Alpha5 Preview being unable to open a file in IE suddenly yesterday the problem vanished and its working again.
I have no idea why this should be, however I am of course very pleased!
Maybe one of the unsolvable bugs!
