I'm running on an IIS server. According to my web host server isn't running in CGI mode (I don't really know what that means but their answer to the question was "no". Any idea what the problem might be?

I have had no report of this error in five years

It looks as if one of the uploaded files may be corrupt. Try the following:

- Go to the regular vb admincp/vb optiobs/cookies and http header options, and disable the gzip compresion option (GZIP HTML Output = no). Try again with local_links_admin.php

- Try loading local_links.php

- Try reuploading all the files

Am happy to take a look at your site if you want.
