When I'm on line, the pictures and graphics are always blurry. How can I fix
this problem?
 
Hi Steffie :-)

You do not mention what version of Windows you are using, so I can only
provide general information. You might try the following and see if it
helps:

JPEG images appear distorted in Internet Explorer 6

Fuzzy Text and fuzzy web graphics

Change the DPI setting from Large to Normal and see if that helps.

and..

Do you havw an accelerator supplied by your ISP? If so, try turning it off.

or......

I can't see JPG's or GIFS any more - red x - images missing - fuzzy

Find the information on your video driver. Then go to the website for mfg.
of the video driver and look for the update to download and install. There
may also be a Update Driver button on the dialog box you can use to go
direct to the update download site.

Try reducing hardware acceleration:
Right click on the Desktop on an open area,
Properties>Settings>Advanced>Troubleshoot
Move the slider back to the left a little and test to see if that helps.
Try it at increments until you get all the way to the left end to see if
that helps.

Thanks for replying. Here's some more info so that maybe you can narrow it
down for me. I'm always afraid of changing settings/downloading, etc. if I
don't know exactly what I'm doing. Anyway... when I right click on a blurry
image (either a graphic or picture) there's an option at the bottom that says
something to the effect of "Display image in full quality", when I click that
the image reloads and is fine, no more blurryness. So how do I get all the
images to load that way with out having to click on that for EVERY image on
every page? My computer is running XP and IE 6 (i think, it might be version
5, but i'm not sure). Any more thoughts, i know it has to be a simple
setting somewhere that is just eluding me. Thanks again. Steff
 
Thanks, that did it! Why am I paying the extra $ for Netzero's accelerator
if the images aren't clear. What a scam. Thanks for your help! Steff
