Hello, Just wondering if anyone might be able to help me
with a problem i've been having with ie. Quite a while ago
i changed some registry values for the maxium connections
that your browser could have withe a web site. I increased
the number to speed up browsing which worked pretty good
at the time but lately i think it has had some adverse
effects. When i go to a page with a lot of pictures on a
majority of the pictures only show up with an X, When i
right click on the picture and click show picture the
picture shows up immed. with no problems. I believe the
problem has to due with the registry valus that i changed
but i no longer remember the settings that i changed. Any
suggestions to fix this problem would be appreciated.

The above registry values do not affect the problem you are having ...
You may need to clear your TIF as you may have a corrupt file there.

Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab
Click the "Delete Files" button, when prompted place a check in:
"Delete all offline content", click OK
Click the "Clear History" button, click OK.
Click the Settings button, adjust the TIF size to 50 mb, click OK

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.

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".

6) Pop-up blockers that are stripping header\url info.
