Image and Download "Problem"

Hello everyone. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on these 2
problems.

A few months ago, I got that dreaded virus that shuts down your
computer (though I don't recall the name of it off-hand) and had to
reformat. I downloaded all the suggested items and everything is
working fine now...except this. I like to play games at pogo.com and
since I had the virus, I've been unable to play since the game images
don't show up. This isn't a major concern as there are plenty of game
sites out there but I've also experienced problems with seeing images
on normal webpages. I just get the little red X in the upper lefthand
corner and yes, I have clicked on "show picture". I thought it was
java and tried to remedy this by installing Java from sun.com but this
hasn't worked.

Also, something weird happens when I try to download various items.
The system automatically opens the files and now I have to right-click
"Save Target As". Is there any way I can fix this?

I'm really hoping someone can help with all of this!

Thanks in advance.
 
What you may want to check is the security level of IE in your tools menu. I
would drop them all down and see if that helps. Once you do this you can
then start raising the security level up again.
