So, in english, your clicking on a link in a thread to view pictures, and an internet explorer window pops up with no pictures at all ?


Firstly, what version of windows are you running ? And secondly what version of internet explorer are you running ? To find these out click on start then run and type in Dxdiag and click yes or ok to the message that comes up, it will tell you your operating system. open internet Explorer and click on help, and about internet explorer.

When you click on the link is there a box with a red cross in it ? What checks have to run to say everythings ok ?

Try upgrading to Internet Explorer 8, or donload mozilla firefox from mozilla.com and see if it freezes / crashes in that. If it still does it, I'd try the repair instructions up top, or wipe it clean and start again.
