images wont load after refresh

D

defrag4

This is a weird error, If I go to certain sites such as www.amazon.com
or www.autotrader.com they will display fine the first time, however
next time I try to visit them or just refresh the page about 90% of the
images dont load and show the Red X. If I clear my temp internet files
and then reload the page works fine again.

I have tried reinstalling the java client, repairing IE6, checking for
spyware, dumping all my temp internet/history/deleting temp files.
Pretty much everything, yet the problem continues...

This is IE6 on a Windows XP pro SP2 machine.

Anyone have any ideas? Ive never seen anything like this. It happens on
any profile I try to use on this one machine.

I have now tried to do a Windows XP Repair install and STILL have the
problem. Also another user in the company is complaining of a similar
problem.

Go to a website and it loads fine, but then try to go back to it and no
pictures load.

im stumped

These are 2 images of the error, one shows what amazon.com looks like
when it breaks, the other shows the error IE gets after the page loads
like this

Privacy Report (e.g. Alt-V,v) shows that the images are fetched from
g-images.amazon.com
or

},
'init popover' );
//]]</script>

</extract>


I doubt that the first symptom has anything to do with the second.
The first symptom could be diagnosed further by a packet trace.

The second symptom might be an indication of the interference
with the display of ads by such mechanisms as popup blockers,
etc., in particular, incorrectly modified HTML source.
E.g. it might be suspicious if your instance of the above script
always occurs on a different line from anybody else.
