JPEGS wont show on websites

G

Guest

when i go to some websites i am unable to view some of the JPEGs or other
picture formats. I cannot understand why I am unable to do so as I am pretty
sure that all of the apporopriate settings are set up correctly.

I am running XP Home Edition, and i am also running JAVA 2 Platform standard
edition version 1.5.0 (build 1.5.0_02-b09).

I have mentioned JAVA as i always believed that it is this application that
aids you to view these pictures.

Please help to solve my problem, if another other info is required about my
system then please ask.


Thanks

Hi Neil :)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Some firewalls can prevent images from being seen on webpages, such as Zone
Alarm Pro. If you have ZA Pro then check the following:

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.

These can also cause image problems:

How to test Images in IE

Open IE and for testing purposes,
Go to http://www.jpeg.org/
Right click on one of the pictures and click on 'Save picture as...'
