Hi Tom
First try the following:
Clearing the TIF Cache -
Safely Delete the Temporary Internet Files
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm
Zone Alarm Pro can block Images in IE
1. Go into IE>Tools>Internet Options>Security>Custom level>reset custom
level to Medium or Low
2. Go into IE>Tools>Internet Options>Privacy>set the slider to Medium or Low
3. Go to this site and read on adjusting the Privacy settings in ZA. It will
explain how to customize on a per site basis.

You might also try this fix. Although it worked for a few others, it may not
work for you, but, it may be worth a try. But, be sure to back up your
Registry before you try this:
Open Regedit
Open \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PROTOCOLS\Name-Space Handler\
Delete the keys "http", "https", and "ftp"
Leave the 'mk' key
The mk key is created by Windows and the others may be created by some other
dnld or type manager.

Pictures Do Not Show
http://www.fjsmjs.com/IE/redx.htm
or.......................
Right click on the graphic you see and a pop up menu should appear. Select
"Show Picture" option.
Then, go to Internet Options>Advanced Tab
Show Pictures - check option if
unchecked to display pictures all the time.

Can't View Some Graphics on IE/AOL
If you have Norton Personal Firewall or some other ad-blocking software or
popup stoppers installed, try disabling this type of software temporarily to
see whether this could be the problem. Many of these programs block
Javascript, which is often used to pop up login windows and create rollover
graphics. Norton Security, for example, is known to block any image that
originates from another server (advertisement images usually do), and I'm
guessing it also blocks at least some Javascript.
Set the following -
Under Security
Java Medium
Display mixed content-prompt is checked
Under Scripting
Scripting of Java applets
Is set to Enable
Privacy settings are medium

Are there any solutions to the IE6 missing GIF problem?
