If I use internet explorer it refuses to open the site, just shows a 403 error but thats my computer,
IE works perfectly ok on another machine.
That's a
"Forbidden" server response. It should normally be the same for different browsers. Again I suspect that your copy of IE is showing an old cached version of the URL --perhaps directory listing is not allowed on your server, and you got a 403 response earlier, before adding an index.html file in the directory.

I will backup the whole site and search for any cached files, its not a large site so it wouldnt be that difficult to rebuild

The online web pages that use the
