Oh dear... :( You get the front page but when you click any of the links
it fails? I wonder if it's a proxy related issue.... are you using ISA 
with proxy settings in your browser, or are you using it as a 
transparent proxy? You might need to say your Tivo shouldn't be accessed
via the proxy server.

Did you run TivoWeb with the console option then close the telnet 
session or anything...?

Yeah, it's generally always OK to reboot.... you'll have to telnet in 
and run
/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl/tivoweb
though, until you've modified it to startup all the time.

Main reboot options.... pull the plug, type reboot in a telnet session,
or on the Tivo Messages & Setup/ System Reset/ Restart the Recorder

I normally type reboot in a telnet session because it's easier!

These are Linux bash shell commands (and ftp commands) that we've been 
using, because your Tivo runs Linux. :)
