ZD JOURNAL TIP: FIXING YOUR TEXT INDICES
As you work on a Web, FrontPage automatically indexes all the text on your pages. This index is used by the search bot when you add a search form to your Web. Occasionally, however, the text index can become outdated, and the search form will return bad results. (For example, it might list a page in the search results that no longer exists.) To update the index, just choose Recalculate Hyperlinks from the Tools menu in FrontPage Explorer. If you need more help, try the procedure outlined in this Knowledge Base article: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q170/9/75.asp
