Yes, I verified this page works correctly in firefox and internet 
explorer as described in detail below.

On my machine cygwin is installed on the f: disk.  After reading your 
message I noticed the following:

1) I go to the directory,  F:\cygwin\usr\share\doc\lilypond-2.4.3-1 in 
windows XP explorer and double click on index.html. 
2) This fires up my browser and redirects the browser to 
file:///f:/cygwin/usr/share/doc/lilypond-2.4.3-1/Documentation/out-www/index.html
3) I select any link and it takes me to an HTML page.  If that page is 
supposed to have music, it instead displays "[image of music]"
4) When I tried the one-big-page equivalent that you asked me to test it 
instead takes me to:
        
file:///f:/cygwin/usr/share/doc/lilypond-2.4.3-1/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/lilypond.html
5) I noticed the difference in address you suggested and my one-big-page 
html.  The only difference is that mine has the extra "lilypond" 
subdirectory in its path.
6) I removed the extra directory so that it matched your suggested path 
except it is on my f: drive.  And that displayed all the music CORRECTLY 
rather than the "[image of music]" fall back display message.
7) I did not exhaustively explore the lilypond-2.4.3-1 subdirectories 
and html files, but as far as I can tell, the one-big-page html in the 
out-www directory is the ONLY html page that displays the music correctly.
