Hi Asiri

Sorry for the long reply time. Holidays and hectic times.

I have tried to put office 2007 in XP SP2 compatibility mode it did not 
seem to help.

I run xwiki on port 8080 if at use Apache as proxy for port 80 mapped to 
port 8080 webdav does not work at all. The same is the case if I use 
iptables to redirect traffic from port 80 to 8080.

The scenario that works for me is:
  - tomcat 5.5 with xwiki running on port 8080
  - clients that works is:
   - Linux(Debian sid) with firefox and OpenOffice
   - Windows XP with Office 2003
   - Windows Vista with Office 2003

I have not had any success with Office 2007 at all.
