web created in FP2000- Problems with converting to FP2003

[Danielle]

I created a web site at work with FP2000, burned the root
folder to a disc, and now am trying to publish it from
home with FP2003. I had to get this version because I
have windowsXP at home. So now the site looks perfect
until I look at it in the browser mode. Gif bars that I
put into the site are shorter than they should be. But
the biggest problem is that words like "art & money" are
atomatically hyperlinked to "the best art or money
sites". I can't seem to get it to turn off. I even went
to get help from the microsoft web site and followed
directions for disconecting the "show Microsoft Office
online feature links". I did just what it told me to do
and it didn't change anything. I am getting really
frustrated. New horizons tells me it's not backward
compatible after I talked to someone their before I
bought FP2003, and they told me it was. Someone else
told me that it must be compatible if I am getting
everything, but these two issues. He also told me that
there must be some way to turn this feature off. Does
anyone have a REAL clue? Keep in mind I am an artist-
not a technical person. So please speak basic tech
lingo. Thanks a Ton in advance. Danielle

I would use Spybot Search and Destroy;
http://www.safer-networking.org/

and AdAware by lavasoft.

Which are both free.
