Getting red "x"s instead of images

[Ron]

I just upgraded from IE version 5 to version 6. Now, only
red "x"s appear where there used to be images. Help please!

Thanks.

I did as this article suggested but I'm still having problems. It's been
happening a lot lately, at home and at work. I was wondering if it could be
network problems overall?

I doubt if it's a network problem.

installed reset your Personal Firewall Settings. If that doesn't work you
will need to uninstall and reinstall NIS. AdSubtract also causes a
problem.<<<

Uh oh, I'm running AdSubtract Pro both at home and work. Is there a fix?

I'm a little confused by the contradictions here:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=283807 says "8. On the View menu, point
to Encoding. If a check does not appear next to Auto-Select, click
Auto-Select." But http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers.htm#jpg_gif says
"It has recently been noted that if IE is set to 'auto-select' at view,
encoding that some sites will not load graphics. Set your system to western
european (windows)." Which is more current/correct?

Meanwhile, I'll check AdSubtract's support page.

Thanks,
Mike

I think that the answer for AdSubtract is to uninstall it.

AutoSelect.
Some machines work better with it checked and some with it unchecked. I've
always had it unchecked and set to Western (ISO) and I've never had a red-X
problem.
