I have no idea why it started doing this but now the Autothumbnail feature is
saving in a "FrontPageTempDir" instead of the working "idex" directory. I
have tried to search for this directory and have had no luck. I uninstalled
the entire Microsoft package and re-installed it. That did not solve the
problem. Also, no known virus's on this computer. Any help would be
appreciated. If I can not solve this...might have to switch software.

When you save the page, is a Save Embedded Files dialog box appearing? This
is where and when the thumbnails get saved. They *don't* get saved
immediately when you create them.

If the Save Embedded Files dialog box *is* appearing, you can check the Save
location by selecting one or more pictures and then clicking the Change
Folder button. Any changes you make will apply only to the pictures you
selected.

Of course, be sure to click OK, and not Cancel, when you're ready to leave
Save Embedded Files dialog box.
