hi everyone, im new here but im turning here as a last
resort. its been the past three days and i cannot view
any images on while browsing the net. I can see my
hompage, and some other websites, but for some reason i
cannot see images or icons in my hotmail page, or a lot
of other websites. even right clicking show picture
doesn't work. i've checked the options under multimedia,
and everything is in order. i have internet 6 and have
installed all the security patches. i have also done a
system restore to no avail. if anyone can help me, my
email address is (e-mail address removed). Thankyou very
much, it is really bothering me.
 
From a previous post by Mike Burgess, MVP:

-
Pictures Are Not Displayed on Web Sites in Internet Explorer

Are you using a Firewall or "filtering software"?

Several of these are known to cause problems:
1) Zone Alarm Pro [Private Header Info - enabled?]
Reset "Ad Blocking" and "Cookie Control" to "medium"
"Mobile Code Control" = Off

2) Symantec (ISS\NIS)[Enable Browser Privacy - enabled]
Active Content - "Allow All Script To Execute"
Problem: some sites cannot detect the 128 bit encryption
Solution: Completely remove and reinstall NIS.

3) Any "ad blocking" software that blocks "http_referer"
or contains entries that are blocking access to the desired site.

4) HOSTS file that contains entries that are blocking access to the desired
site.

5) Cookie blocking software that are blocking "required" Cookies.

6) Pop-up blockers that are stripping header\url info.

7) WebWasher Standard Filter/URL Filter

8) Make sure the following entry is not corrupt:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]
"User Agent"="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Win32)"

Note: "Win32" = Windows 98\ME
Other versions = (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0;)

To check your "User Agent":
Paste the below into the Address Bar and view the output:

javascript:navigator.userAgent

[Example WinME output]
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)

If nothing helps, post the contents of this key:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Name-Space Handler]
