Well I'll try to send this out.  I sent a message at 9:30 CDT and it  
is yet to appear. :)

If you have the option, I would suggest to first backup your current / 
usr/local/nagios/* files, then recompile/reinstall with the latest  
Nagios 3.0.3 source and follow the quickstart guides (without using  
the 'make install-config' which overwrites your config files).  This  
would bring you down to it being a problem with your Nagios  
configuration or your system configuration.  Though this is a drastic  
step but a good chance to upgrade.

Is the rest of your interface looking alright?  Have you made any  
changes to the cgi.cfg file (maybe involving web root directory)?  Did  
you try to take away all the url references from you config files?  
(the  'vrml_image', 'icon_image', 'statusmap_image' )  I would need  
more log data to help narrow it down.
