Lookups don't work in Employee Portal

Hi,
I have setup Employee Portal to provide some demo's to various departments. All has gone well - everything appears to work as intended with the exception of the following:
a) While all web parts show the lookup icons in various places, none of them deliver a result. All that is returned after pressing the icon is the familiar IE "can't find it" page with a HTTP 404 - File not found error at the bottom.
b) Pictures don't display on forms - only the placeholder is shown. Right-clicking and selecting "Show pciture" has no effect.
I have trawled all the Employee Portal posts but cannot find anyone who has posted this issue.
I realise I have not posted all the details concerning the setup of everything etc etc etc. I figure if 95% of NEP works fine, it must surely be something simple causing this issue ... and it may not even be related to NAV directly.
Assistance would be appreciated.
Regards,
Pete.

In IIS you should see a virutal folder called UserControls
Please have a look if:
- it is really a virtual folder
- it is not running in an own application in IIS (the box application name should be greyed out)
- if the link to the physical folder contains the files:
x Report.aspx
- Filestream.aspx
- Lookup.aspx
Secondly go to the SharePoint configuration of the virtual server and have a look if the above mentioned virtual folder is in the "Excluded Path" for that server.
Why? Because if it is not excluded, SharePoint ISAPI handler tries to run the page from his database. But it is a physical file which should be run by IIS-ASP.NET ISAPI. With the excluded path, the HTTP request is forwarded to ASP.NET (and ignored by SharePoint).
