I've tried everything listed to try to fix why all my pages dont load the
background images,buttons, etc. I tried even using Mozilla Firefox, Opera,
and Netscape. But they all do the same. I would really like just to use
Internet Explorer. It reall just loads text, small lined borders, and
advertisments. Any help would be grateful.

Thanks,

Hi,
Since all browsers have the problem, take a look at any third-party
security, privacy, ad-blocking programs you have running. If using WindowsXP
turn on the Windows Firewall (Control Panel> Windows Firewall) and disable
(as a test) your third-party firewall (if you're running one.) It sounds
like a third-party program is blocking some types of content.

Is McAfee Privacy Service running? It's been causing problems recently.

Hope this helps,

No turning off the firewall, Zone Alarm, doesn't help. I reverted from
Mozilla's firefox 1.5rc1 down to 1.0.7 and the downgrade works like it did
before, "no imaging problems". I also made sure that Microsofts firwall is
turned off. I just don't see how almost all browsers except Mozilla 1.0.7
operates without showing the graphics.

Thanks,
CK B
 
I also went to Mozilla's Firefox support forum and found this link:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=288184 and I can't see the
first image on number 3 in IE6 or FF1.0.7 and it was set to normal for
FF1.0.7. Is there something like that to configure in IE6? I understand that
you probably dont give a @$%& about other browsers but I want to use IE if at
all possible and I'm tring to give you everything I know to try to fix the
problem.

Thanks,
CK B

If you mean you can only see Frame Two, I doubt if IE is the problem.
What version of Windows do you have and what version of IE6?
What anti-virus are you using?

Hi,
Since the image at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=288184 that
you aren't seeing is one frame of an animated gif, go to Internet Options>
Advanced> make sure that "Play animations" is checked.

But, the blocked animated gifs still sounds like the work of Zone Alarm. Are
you sure that ZA was off?

[Longshot] This usually causes other, more obvious problems, but go to
Control Panel> Accessibility> Display> make sure that Use High Contrast is
not checked.

Sorry... ;-) other possibilities at:

You know I've been tring for 2 months now to try to fix this. I've ask every
web browser the same thing. I can't believe none of them told me that. Some
have said to change things in Accessibility and I believe one might have said
to make sure it is checked. I would have hoped that by having them see that
it happens to all browsers some one might suggest something about Windows. If
I could send a $tip$, I would.

Thanks, more than gratefully appreciated,
Chris K. B.

To the reason what might have cause the problem. Using the shortut. I might
have turned on the shortcut somehow by pressing alt+left shift+print screen.
I have no idea why I would have done it but I surely wouldn't have done it on
purpose have the box checked. I'm not blind. I have 20-30 vision. lol.

You know...i was fighting this problem on a clients computer ALL night with
no luck...and after reading this post i'm about 99% sure this is the problem.
I can't wait to get home and turn off the high contrast option and get that
pc out of my office LOL.

Thanks for the helpful post. Saved me a much bigger headache.
