Ok now i know this is not a huge deal but I am going
crazy. There are some webpages that I load and some pics
do not display, I cant find out if it is one type of file
that is not loading or what. I have a laptop that loads
these images fine but on my desktop it just doesnt work,
I have tried everything compared all internet settings
with my laptop and all are identical. Encoding is the
same as well. Anyone have any idea on what might cause
this or any ideas that i can try to do to fix this issue?

Thanks!
 
Profound30,
Pictures Are Not Displayed on Web Sites in Internet Explorer

Are you using a Firewall or "filtering software"?

Several of these are known to cause problems:
1) Zone Alarm Pro [Private Header Info - enabled?]
Reset "Ad Blocking" and "Cookie Control" to "medium"
"Mobile Code Control" = Off

2) Symantec (ISS\NIS)[Enable Browser Privacy - enabled]
Active Content - "Allow All Script To Execute"
Problem: some sites cannot detect the 128 bit encryption
Solution: Completely remove and reinstall NIS.

Web Pages Display a Red "X" Instead of a Graphic

3) Any "ad blocking" software that blocks "http_referer"
or contains entries that are blocking access to the desired site.

4) HOSTS file that contains entries that are blocking access to the desired
site.
Symtom: Page cannot be displayed / Cannot find server or DNS Error

In the event you can not access a site or missing graphics and
you believe it may be due to an entry in the HOSTS file.

You can use a simple batch file to rename the HOSTS file "on-the-fly".
