For some reason my computer has stopped loading some of the images on certain pages....I just get the red X. It loads some pictures and not others??

ANyone know why?

 

normally points to a bad quality internet connection rather than a PC fault

 

hmmmm...

The internet is still very quick [8 meg broadband I think]

Even if I right click and show picture it won't work?

 

Is this all web pages or just some and if just some can you give examples

 

Pretty much the AutoTrader and here

 

For instance on this page I can see the Avatars & the banner at the top but not the Sigs??

 

sometimes it happens, i get it alot on school computers, right click and then click show picture if that doesnt work maybe restarting ya pc?

 

Anyone else?

Its still doing it...if I right click show picture it DOESN'T Work

 

empty your IE cache
-> tools / internet options / delete files

then close and re open IE.

 

Its the same on mine, Avitar but no sigs, its all images from Photobucket, I can't get on there directly either.

I'm using Firefox on Bulldog 8mg, tried it with I.E on Bulldog still no pics.

 

that points to a problem with the internet connection between you ISP and photobucket (and some other sites)

if thats the case theres nothing you can do about it

you however have a good connection to passionford (as the avatars etc. are hosted by PF, sigs hosted by PB)

 

if it's only a problem with images coming from photobucket, then it's definitely as Jim said

 

i was only giving you a suggestion sorry if it doesnt work

 

danielle, that will only work if its an intermittent faultnormally on the PC end. if there's a broken connection somewhere out on the net, no end of right clicking will make any difference

 

Have you got a firewall in?? if you have a norton firewll there is a function u will have to un-tick to let the images load up.

 

You have to allow norton firewall / internet security to grant access to photobucket

 

i haven't with mine, and it works fine. I got Norton systemworks 2006, as well as Internet security 2006, granted a few things but not photobucket, works fine though. But to let images load up on some web pages, u to have to go into the privacy control settings, and un-tick enable browser privacy, images should load then.

 

Seems to be sorted now....I did as Pet said and emptied the cache thingymibob

 

hey i was only suggesting never said it would work just sometimes it happens on school pcs and that seems to fix the problem

 

wasnt knocking your idea luv
