Hi Allen,
And if you disable your ad blocking software which is seeing the "banners"
folder as a possible source of a banner ad? Do you have the IE7Pro Addon
installed?
No problems on my machine. Vista x86 SP1 IE7.
To test try renaming your "banners" folder to "bananas" (or some other name
that may not be confused for a possible ad source, eg. ad, click, adsense).
or run IE7 in no-Addons mode - Start>(All) Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>Internet Explorer (no-Addons).

To organize your Photos try a product like Windows Photo Gallery or Google's
Picasa (both are freeware from Live and Google respectively).
You can use Categories and Tags to organize your photos which may be in the
same physical folder so that you don't have to change the links in your
existing web pages. It should save you a lot of time.
download.live.com or picasa.google.com
You should be able to see on your web logs 1 hit from Australia for that
banners folder, very early Sunday Morning (your time), from me when I tested
your code.
Regards.
