publishing a site

I have been using Publisher 2002 for three years. All of
a sudden when I save my page as a web page, instead of
seeing the internet explorer icon, I see a piece of paper
with a world globe on top of it and a P for publisher on
top of that. When I first convert it to a web page, it
gives me that plus a folder of web files. When I send
them up to my server, I end up with one file, in spite of
the fact that I send up the one with the world globe, as
well as the one for the web files. And then my site
doesn't work. What is going on. I've never had a problem
publishing my site. Has there been some sort of update
that requires different procedures for publishing.
Help, I'm at my wits end.

Are you using 2002 original, or 2002 SP1, or SP2, or SP3?
( I urge you to be at 2002 SP3)

Are you publishing in Publisher or using a 3rd party upload client?

Are you publishing from the "...as web" link in the File menu OR are you
using File menu, "Save as...", and then selecting "web page" in file type?

Under the Tools menu, options, web..., do you have the option to use a
subfolder for subfile organization checked or unchecked?

What about the site "doesn't work", explain?

What is the URL?
