Earlier Microsoft and now Psoft has terminated support for Frontpage extensions:

http://www.psoft.net/misc/frontpage_support_termination.html

As an effect we are terminating support for Frontpage extensions for all current and new Frontpage users as of December 1, 2006.

We are almost forced into this due to below reasons:
1. There are no security updates for Frontpage Extensions from Microsoft.
2. Psoft's upgrade scripts will explicitly delete the frontpage extensions from Linux servers.

Resellers are requested to work with their client and help them move to alternative solutions before December 1st.
you may want to visit the below link for solution offered by Microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/web_designer/fpupgrade/default.mspx

Or migration kit offered by Adobe(previously Macromedia):
http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/product_resources/migration_kit.html

Resellers may get listing of their user accounts using Frontpage by creating a support ticket.

We will soon add a plugin that will remove Frontpage extensions options in control panel for all those Linux users who are not using it yet.
