Picture Problems
hi, when i log on to AO where there should be pictures/logos etc... there is white boxes with a square with X's in it... it will still say the words like for example it still says "New Posts" but where there should be a picture or logo there is a white box with an X in it... i right click and press "Show Picture" but nothing happens! what is wrong??

Do you use any proxies or filtering programs?

Hi Tex,
If it isn't a temporary internet glitch the two most likely causes are:
1. Advert blocker, probably set to too small an image size.
2. Somehow your file associations for .gif/.jpg files have gotten screwed up.
What browser are you using?
Cheers

IM using IE with win xp without any filtering programs or proxies...

Texan,
You might have your permissions (under IE>Tools>Internet Options) set to not show images. Or it is possible that you have tweeked you system to not show HTML content but only plain text. Also you could have your system set for maximum speed versus appearance and that could be causing you to drop images.
To check this quickly, restore your system to a previous date when every thing worked right, and write the setting that are there down. Then undo the restore and compare them with what you have now.
Correct as needed or wanted.

I have MS java applet running and i also have Sun's java program running... could that be the problem? because i checked my preferences and i didnt see anything else out of the norm...

Hi Tex,
I think you may have your own answer. I had a problem with M$ Jave corruption, and it was only when I uninstalled it, and only the Sun one was running that the AO site worked properly again.
Cheers
