Hyperlinks correct but FP2002 says they're broken

When I run the Broken Links report, it shows hundreds of broken links.
However, when I edit the page the broken links are on, the links work fine.
I've also copied the "broken" link from FrontPage and pasted it in the
Internet and it has worked fine. I've looked all over the internet for
answers, but the only thing I've found is that hyperlinks can be shown as
broken because the URL's are too long or redirect somewhere. If that's true,
can I edit FP so those hyperlinks don't show up?

I hate to ask incase you've already done it but have you tried:
tools/ recalculate hyperlinks? also tools/ site settings/ delete temporary
files.

You are a lifesaver! I went under web settings (we don't have site settings)
and deleted the temporary files, as well as clicked the box "show hidden
files". I don't know what did it, but it worked! My company has been trying
to figure this out for weeks, THANK YOU!!

I spoke too soon...I thought it was fixed, because it showed less broken
links, but when I looked closer, the links listed as broken were actually
okay. Thanks anyway, you've given me some new ideas! Oh, and I've
recalculated and verified the hyperlinks many times to no avail.
