Usually, the red X means that image cannot be found.
How are people on other machines accessing this page? Are they hitting your
machine? Or did you email or otherwise distribute a single HTML file to
them? Their browser cannot resolve the links to other HTML files nor can it
find the images. It sounds to me like all of these files are on your
machine, while the primary HTML file has been distributed to other people on
other machines.
btw, this has nothing to do with Frontpage, unless you used Frontpage to
publish the web, and your users are hitting the published version.
Hope this helps,
Suzanne
