As I understand it, she cannot get the new pages to display because 
there is a "control panel" page that she must use, and it does not 
work.

Since the pages are on the server and you have no access to the 
directory that holds the pages being displayed, you have no choice in 
the matter.  You must contact the ISP/Hosting company to get it 
accomplished.

Your only other option is to load the pages on a new server and have 
the customer reflect the new addy in correspondence and advertising. 
Since the ISP/Hosting company is going out of business, it will have 
to be done sooner or later anyway.
