Hi, a few days ago i had to reinstal XP, since then internet explorer has been playing up, on web pages some pics dont load only a square box where the picture should be with a red X in it..

Anyone have any ideas


athlon 17xp
256mb ram
geforce 4

Have you checked here> IE/tools/internet options/advanced.
See if the box for pictures is set right. (ticked or unticked??)

yeah ive tried that, ive installed a diff version of java too i read somewhere that that could help, but still no pics, i dont understand because all my software and hardware is the same as it was before i reinstalled xp

thanx

If you get nothing else you could try doing a repair of IE.

I don't want to sound stupid here but,,,
Look in your favs for the links folder open it and look for toggle images.exe give it a click and then refresh the page.

Nothing to loose give it a go, I had same problem when i first used XP

good luck best regards......Cupid

And if that doesn't work you can always give Mozilla a go. Easy to use & figure out.

Here ya go. This got posted earlier today.

go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and open HOSTS file with notepad and find image.com.com to remove any gamespot problem and MSN for any msn problem and so on, u gotta use the find option.


Whoever tried it copied the file then deleted it & it worked.

IE Problem

Check to make sure that you still have all the plugins that you had before (macromedia flash, quicktime, etc.)
