Unknown Link
Question: When I go to some web sites I see a small square containing a red X. When I click on this I get taken to another site but I have no idea what site it is until it opens. What is wrong?

Answer: The square containing the red X indicates a missing image. The web page cannot find or does not have access to the image that is supposed to display there. If the image reference is to a local image then the site owner either forgot to upload the image or uploaded the image with a different name (eg. Img.GIF instead of img.gif). If the image reference is to another web site then either the owner of that site has removed or renamed the image or that site does not allow remote loading of images.
If the image is used as a link then the link will still work but you and other visitors will have no idea of where the link will take you until you actually get there. What you need to do is to contact the owner of the site where you found this problem (hopefully they have an email address or contact form somewhere on their site) and let them know that their page has this problem.
