google and have tried all repairs that have been shown, as well as checked my
internet options,gone through my firewall and ad blocking software and still
nothing ??..Someone did mention ( sfc /scannow ) and I am willing to do do
that however when I begin that it tells me to insert my windows xp pro cd...I

Since I don't know what "all repairs that have been shown" are, I don't
know if you've tried this:

Webpage Images Not Displayed Correctly - This can occur if value of
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.gif\Content_Type or
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\Content_Type are set incorrectly. Quit IE, run
regedit and find the 1st key: double-click Content Type value in right
pane and type "image/gif" without quotes in Value Data box. Do the same
(only "image/jpg") for the other key.
