This may be of some partial assistance.

Remember any error message generated by the server less than 512
characters will be over-written with IE's generic "friendly" error
message. (eg: the server is busy)

You can turn off this behaviour by unchecking
Tools|Internet Options|Advanced|Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages

Which will probably help you somewhat in your diagnosis of what is really
going on.
