I see only squares with a red cross in them in my web browser. Is this
related to Java. If so how do I find out what vers I have and how do I
update to the current version?

TIA

In IE, go to the Tools menu and select Internet Options.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Scroll down to the Multimedia section and make sure the box "Show Pictures" is
ticked.

Clear the IE cache from IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete files and
Delete offline content.

Zone Alarm can also cause the problem:-

If you have it, this is caused by ZoneAlarm Pro, specifically "Ad Blocker".
ZoneAlarm is intercepting your pages and modifying them before you get them
That's also ZoneAlarm (Pro only). Many have noticed Zone Lab's little addition
and not known had any idea what it is, and unfortunately, they don't comment
their changes.

To check your Privacy settings in ZoneAlarm:

Privacy | Main | Cookie Control [Custom] | Cookies | 3rd Party Cookies | Disable
web bugs. You may try turning this off and seeing what happens. The other tabs
do things like disable animated gifs

Java is at the bottom:

Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Internet Options
Click the "Advanced" tab, Scroll down to "Multimedia",
check "Show pictures", and uncheck "Show image download
placeholders". Click "apply", "OK"

Also click the "General" tab, Under "Temporary Internet Files", click the "Delete Files" button,
check the box, "Delete all offline content", "OK". After it finishes, click the "Settings"
button and lower the amount of disk space to use to 20 Meg. Click "OK", "Apply". That will
increase your hard drive space by how much was in that folder. I've seen it well over a gig.
Folders that big are prone to crosslinked files. Clear it weekly, or sooner, especially if IE
starts acting funny. You can automate the process by clicking the "Advanced" tab, scroll down to
"Security", and check the box, "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed",
click "Apply", "OK"
