This morning, for unknown reasons my home page started showing a file which
is being automatically loaded. Index.htm works fine. I need to cause my
home page to ALWAYS, ALWAYS go to index.htm, like it did before.

What do you mean, your web site is showing a file which is being
automatically loaded? Do you mean your web site is showing a different page
instead of index.htm? This is a web server issue. A web server has a list of
default filenames. index.htm may be on the list, but not the first one.
Perhaps your host reset their list and the site is now showing a file that
came when your site was originally setup. Check to make sure that index.htm
is the top default filename. If not, either make it the top file if you can
(you may not since not all hosts let you modify the default filename list)
or rename it from index.htm to whatever the first filename in the default
filename list is.

Hope this helps,
