And, the second: after merging files with Sigil, the new file could not open in Firefox Epubreader! It says: "A Firefox nem találja a fájlt a(z) /C:/Documents and Settings/Lala/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/febeprof.Lala/epub/127/OEBPS/jogilexikon_1.xhtml helyen." (Firefox does not find the file in that place.)

So, total failure...
As I don't work with Word 2003 anymore for a long time already, I have no opportunity to check. However, links are always cumbersome during the import, also for newer version. For example, if you have foot-/endnotes the links will work, but not considered as foot-/endnotes. It would be best to recreate the links in the Word document. What is the origin of the links? Where do they point to?

If you merge the files with Sigil (take care if you have internal stylesheets like sgc-x, things can really be messy then), you need to recreate the ncx (TOC) before using it as an ePUB again. Probably that is the reason why it doesn't work in ePUBReader.
