I made some changes on our Web Portal and in doing so, have created a problem.  When I open a browser and type in my IP address, it opens up to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Default.htm instead of Default.aspx.  I can click on home and it takes me to the .aspx file without a problem.  How can I get it to go directly to Default.aspx as it did before?  Do I need to delete the Default.htm file and where is it?

Yes, I am new and there is no training money until October. 

Thanks
