Dear Mike, I finally was able to fix my problem. While I was writing my previous message I re-read your previous and this caught my attention
> Apache is trying to execute a directory, for some reason >apache is trying to run things than end in "htm"... So I figured that since in the ScriptAlias I have the iprs_tmp Directory the server was actually trying to execute the Dir as you pointed out. So, I got rid of it and in the Second Directories section I added to the Options ExecCGI I need this to execute a wget.pl script that displays the Protein sequence used as a Query. I really want to thank you for all your help, very much appreciated.
