Hyperlinks don't work

I made a site using Publisher 2007 on my old laptop with IE7 and WinXP. Now I
have a new laptop with the latest IE and Vista, and now some (not all)
hyperlinks do not register as such when you mouse over, and there's nothing
to click...
I know some other users of this web site have also failed to access the
hyperlinks but I'm not sure what IE or OS they are using.

Any suggestions where the problem is coming from?

Here, check this out, the links at the bottom are one picture instead o
individual clickable picture links that they should be.

I might be able to help you fix it with the site files, but it seems t
be a big picture at the bottom.

thanks, I see what you mean: all the links are fused together as one gif
instead of being the buttons they were originally. And yet it worked on my
old laptop with XP and older IE.

Do you think I could solve it by re-editing the pre-set buttons in Publisher
2007 on my newer laptop (the program I used originally) and saving at
re-uploading? Or do you think I would be better off re-doing the buttons by
redrawing them and individually hyperlinking them from scratch?

cheers!

your reply lead to me ungrouping all objects and now i can use the links as
the buttons are seen individually rather than as one picture...
all works now, THANKS!!!! )
although now i have gained access to the pages beyond the home page i can
see that the scripts for embedding music and video nolonger work with the
latest OS/WMP/IE so I have more work to do finding scripts that will work!
