background images don't appear anymore

Hi,

Since today the background images in HTML pages don't show up anymore in IE.
test page:
<html>
<body background="image.jpg">
</body>
</html>

I -was- using 5.5 when the problem started, so I thought a good moment to update to 6.0 but the problem is still there.
using another browser (eg. firebird), confirms that it is not the problem of the page or images.

what the ... is going on here?

Background Colors or Images Are Not Visible on Web Pages in Internet
Explorer
When you attempt to view a Web page that has a background color or
background image, the background is not displayed and a white background is
displayed instead.

If still no joy then remove some files from your temporary Internet Files
(Folder)

Thanks that solved it!
(should have included "not visible" in my search on the MS site, then I would have found it too :-( )
