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.
also.......
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
Check if your encoding setting in IE. To do this, click on View / Encoding,
and make sure Western European is selected.
For AOL problems:
1) AOL --> Settings --> Preferences --> Internet Properties (WWW)
2) AOL Users with different versions:
* AOL 5.0 and below:
AOL Internet Properties --> Web Graphics --> Used Compressed Graphics
Be sure to Uncheck (which means NO check/mark).
* AOL 6.0:
AOL Internet Properties --> Web Graphics
Be sure to choose never compress graphics.
3) Click General tab (at top left-side corner of AOL Internet Properties).
4) Click Delete Files under Temporary Internet Files and then press OK
button to delete all items in the Temporary Internet Files folder.
5) Click Clear History under History and then press OK/Yes button to delete
all items in your History folder.
6) Press OK button (at the bottom) to save changes and close your AOL
browser.
7) Restart your computer and then get back to AOL.
More info about the problem can be obtained at

If all the above fails, Repair your IE, then SHUT DOWN your machine, don't
just
restart, then restart your machine.
If these steps do not resolve your problem, or you need help with the above,
please post back to this thread with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps
