I use the eBookStarter templates, and the top banner frame has a refresh meta tag to cause a new banner to load every 20 seconds.
When the page refreshes, I get a message box with an error that Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet Site File in my temp directory on my local drive.
I am using 4.22, Win2000 and IE5
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this.

I have done a bit more investigating into this problem. The name of the file that gets refreshed is topbar.htm.
I see that when the ebook runs, all files are copied to the temp directory, but are prefixed with _enc_.
I suspect that when the page is refreshed, it is looking for topbar.htm, but this has been saved in temp as _enc_topbar.htm.
Any ideas?

Are you sure that the meta refresh code + link is right, and you are following the EBookStarter instructions, as nobody else (and there are lot of people using EBookStarter + Activ E-Book) has reported this before.
In 4.22 try setting HTML Protection = Low Security in Advanced Security, see if that makes a difference?

Setting the HTML protection to low security did solve the problem.
It would be a bonus if it could work in high security mode as my source html is now exposed, but the average user probably will never figure out where to find it.

I don't know if this would work, but it might
Try making the page for the metarefresh'd frame with a name NOT ending in .htm or .html
Set High Security
And change the meta-refresh link to point to the new page
