Static Images + Mac timeouts

Hi,

I am setting up my Manila websites but I've come across two problems.  I 
hope someone in this list can help me!

1.  I need a static server to serve images for my manila website.  However, 
because I have no access to one or resources to buy one for my Windows 
machine,  I need Frontier to serve the images for titlebars and side bars of 
each Manila web page.

I tried to put them in Guest Databases/www/ and Guest Databases/www/static 
and try to access them from there, but Frontier will not return the image or 
web page placed there.

a) is there a way to enable this?  The document I read implied that It was 
just a matter of placing data in the right folder.

b) if I enable this,  will it be tremendously slow?

c) any other ideas?  this is an intranet site so I cannot place the images 
in an external free site, and I cannot  do direct links (i.e. 
\\mymachine\foo.jpg) because it needs to work for both windows and PC's.

2. Slightly unrelated question,  whenever I try to log in from a mac 
machine,  the connection times out.  But this only happens when its the 
Login page.  I am not a mac person so I am not sure how I can change the 
timeout value for IE...

Any suggestions for either problem are greatly appreciated!
