Why is PUBLISH omitting some code on remote site

Product - Microsoft Frontpage 2003

When I publish a page, sometimes some lines of code get omitted.
Example: What I have in frontpage is

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p align="center">
<a href="http://www.blumenfeldart.com">
<img src="../logos/banner_02Blumenfeld.jpg" alt="Fine Art, Judaica art"
width="468" height="60">
</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>

What arrives on the remote site is:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p align="center">
<a href="http://www.blumenfeldart.com">
</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>


One line has disappeared!

If you edited the page without having the web opened, this could cause this
problem. FrontPage would not know that the file was modified. Try
recalculating hyperlinks, and re-publish.

I'm not totally sure what you mean, but I think I have covered this
possibility. I copied the original page to a new page, removed all
unnecessary code, except the offending bit, and published the brand new page.
Still the same line got omitted!
Incidentally the original page had quite a lot of links like the one I gave
in the example, and about 5 of these got omitted, and about 40 were published
perfectly satisfactorily!
Thanks for your suggestion but any other ideas?

Are you running Norton, Zone Alarm or MacAfee on your PC.
These protect your PC by removing potentially dangerous images from
web pages that you browse to. These images have "banner" in their
path or name. Images with Ad or Advertisement in the path/name are
also affected.

It is likely that the publishing did not remove the image reference -
just the internet security affecting the browser. Open the site in
FrontPage and check there.

Thanks Ron
Yes I'm running Norton, so you may well be onto the right cause. However I'm
not quite out of the wood yet.
I removed the word banner from the link, and published that, but still no
good. When I click on "View Source", (when on the Internet), the offending
line still was not there.
However when I open the remote file in Frontpage, the source code is there
correctly. Is that what you would expect? Is my Browser editing the code
which is actually there? If so what is it now editing?
Is there any other word apart from banner, ad and advertisement that Norton
censors? I'm also running Microsoft Antispyware, if that is relevant.

I have heard (no personal experience) that some internet security
programs remove images that match a certain size. It may also be
hitting on Logo, though I have not heard of this happening before.
Personally, I no longer use any of the software produced by Norton,
McAfee or Zone Alarm - you have to cripple the security programs to
stop them crippling the browser.

I would expect the file to be complete when viewed from within
FrontPage design or code view, but Norton may affect Preview. I have
never known MS Antispyware to edit a web page.
Have you tried refreshing the page in the browser to eliminate viewing
from your browser's cache.

Removing images of a certain size seems weird! This image was much the same
as all the others on the page.
I have tried changing the name, but whatever I change it to, I get the same
result, whereas if I use an image that is next on my list of logos, that's
perfectly OK. So it can't be hitting on logo. Also I have refreshed the page
consistently!
I haven't removed Norton yet (if that is the offending program), because I
really want to get to the bottom of this. If I can't view it, then presumably
others using Norton can't either. This is a serious problem!
I expect you have run out of ideas, but if by any chance you think of
something else, I'd be most grateful. I want to publish pages that everyone
can see!
Thanks anyway
David
