Images blank in IE7

[Guest]

I have an ASP.NET web app that has been working fine for a couple of years
under IE6. I have just tried upgrading to IE7 but some of my image controls
are appearing as blank - specifically the ones containing ABSOLUTE image URLs
to the client machine.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? I need to use absolute URLs as I
am displaying image files on the clients hard drive.

Thanks for your help

Don't know but IMO it looks like some kind of security issue. Even in IE6 I
thought it was not possible by default to reference a local resource from a
web page...

I would double check the security settings...

The thing I was thinking about is generally called "Zone Elevation" (that
is the ability to access content from a more trusted zone from a less
trusted zone). It has been "enhanced" in IE7.

Try :

and the FEATURE_BLOCK_LMZ_IMG key.

The page is actually
