Firefox Not Loading Images
Aug 16, 2005
Just to start off with, I searched the forums and came up with this thread which seemed related to my problem but didn't solve it:Just finished moving and unloaded my computer yesterday. Everything is running fine but for some reason Firefox doesn't want to load a lot of images from different web pages So far I've noticed it specifically on IMDB.com and Fotki.com.It has also happened on some other random pages but I can't think of them offhand.If I open the exact same page in IE it loads almost instantly. Like I mentioned earlier, I followed the advice in a different thread an cleared the cache and history to no avail. Using Firefox 1.0.6 and XP SP2.

I have posted this problem earlier but it had other things wrong also.I narrowed it down to one problem now.When I'm surfing on the internet certain images won't come up.It will show the box where it goes and a little red x.Or it will have the "page cannot be displayed" message page where the image should be.It does this on most of the images on the hotmail website.I downloaded service pack 2 already.It does this randomly on just about every website. maybe its a problem with IE?

This week on a minority of the websites I go on regularly the text and images aren't loading and only the background comes up. This isn't a problem with the websites as I've tried them on another PC and they come up fine.The info bar at the bottom says that the images are downloading but it's happening really slowly and even when it finishes there's still nothing.Before that happens it also says "error on page" then "done but with errors on page".

I recently downloaded numerous IE updates and I believe my problems started there.I've run numerous software programs: Spysweeper by Webroot System Mechanic, Pest Patrol AdAware Spyware Doctor All of which haven't solved the problem. I've even run a dllfix that has produced no results as well. I have WindowXP home edition. I can go to certain websites and they will instantly load no problems, other sites just do not load correctly. I have broadband and it is acting like dial-up to the tee. It seems that the frequently viewed sites have less trouble than lets say a site I pull up through a news site or other. My computer is normally lightning speed when moving through the internet. No pop-up problems or the like.I've tried looking up a thread on here close to the problems I am having but to no avail I haven't found anything similar to my exact situation. On my system mechanic I picked up and disabled a hotkeycommand process along with a Igfxtray program.

My IE7's been running really slow starting this past week. I don't know what the cause is exactly. I can't figure out if it's the IE software on the PC or if it has something to do with the internet connection. I've run the following to diagnose my problem: NAV 2007 - No Viruses Webroos SpySweeper - No Spyware Optonline speedcheck Utility (when I can get it to run) - the results are very good 13-15mbps down and ~1.5mbps up. I would've posted this last night, but I couldn't get the page to load and even the optonline homepage sometimes wouldn't load. Also, I've noticed that images aren't loading onto the web pages. Just getting a box with an "x" in it. Don't remember if that is an IE security setting that i just need to allow or a an invasion to my system. I reset the IE7 settings to clear anything within IE, but that just made me lose my settings and IE still ran slow and inconsistently. I've checkd the ADD/Remove list and the list of folders within the program files folder and I've found nothing bad has been installed on the sly. Not really sure if this is a problem with optonline's signal or if I've gotten something on my PC that just isn't getting found by NAV and spysweeper. I'm trying to hold off on restoring my system image file, but if I must. I'd like totry to diagnose this if I can.

I downloaded photoshop, and when I tried to install it, it says I have to be an admin. So, I logged off this account and signed in as Administrator, so when I tried to click Mozilla Firefox, it doesn't work. All it did was it came out with this : " Windows cannot find C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox exe.' Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, then click search"

I got a new motherboard installed because my old one fried itself and the pc was reformatted and windows was reinstalled. Since then, it was working fine. The start-up time had also lowered considerably and it was working perfectly for once.One thing that's been happening for a while, my computer started taking longer to start-up. I figured it was just all the programs etc I have installed. Then, I have this one external drive that I got connected internally. There were times where it wouldn't recognize this drive; it wouldn't show up on My Computer. Otherwise, it was perfectly fine. one of my most important drives (E) has been missing for the last 2 days. it hasn't shown up even once and i'm really worried i've lost data and need to recover it.

I am running outlook express in Windows XP SP2. Quite frequently images in emails are replaced by a large box with a small red x in the upper left corner. I have unchecked the appropriate box in the security tab under Options' in the 'Tools' pull down menue of Outlook Express. I still can not get certain images. It would seem that most often this problem occuts in email that has been forwarded to me.

I'd like to know if it's possible to use my own images as a BG for certain folders. For instance, I've made a 'Games' folder, which is where I put shortcuts to games, and would like to use my own image as the BG for that folder. Is it possible? Is there a way to do this?

Had to re-install XP2 Pro and Outlook Express 6. Need to figure out why I can't forward emails that contain images, such as jpegs. I receive the email with the jpeg in the message fine but when I forward the email the jpegs only show as the empty box with the "x" in top left corner. Before re-installing Xp and Office and OE6 I was able to do this. Is there a setting or configuration that I missed. I have set in OE6 Mail Sending Format to HTML with Send Pictures with Messages and Encoding Text as Quoted Printable. I'm using Yahoo as my mail server.

If when you have installed XP along with all drivers, office and updates you make a back up image like ghost, of your system at that point, can this be used as a permanent reinstall if you were unlucky anouth to get hit by a virus or have a corrupted OS, or is it a stop gap until you can reformat and reinstall with a xp disc, and what happens to the data you back up over.

I want to perform a clean install on a older dell poweredge running Win 2000 server that i aquired a while back. What i would like to do is create a Acronis True Image of the current install and throw it on an external HD. (i want to keep the current install usable for a few weeks) Then wipe the disk and do a clean install of the OS and start fresh till i get everything running the way i like it. And also create a image of this new install and throw it on the external HD as well.
But during this span of a few weeks i would need to restore to the original install and go back to the fresh install quite a few times probalby....err toggle between the original and new install until all is well. (carry on with the fresh install when no one is in the office, when done for the night restore back to original install untill the next night i can continue with my work and toggle to the new install again and again and again.

In IE Links, what does Toggle Images.exe do? (I imagine it's supposed to turn on or off images) I've never used this feature before.

I have a problem with viewing images on some websites.I have a Dell Dimension 4600 Series computer, I use Windows XP, IE browser, and I have Norton Systemworks premier 2005 Antivirus program on my computer. I also have spywareblaster from javacool site and a popup blocker.The main type of websites I have trouble viewing are websites with e-cards. I can view the e-cards but when I click on them to view to send..I get the tiny box with the red x in it.One in particular is the Hallmark.com site..I only get a blank background with the box & red x on the main page. If I go down to the e-cards and click on it.I can see the e-cards but again, when I click on one to send, nothing but the blank with the box & red x.Also I have tried to download the Macromedia Flash Player. I click on the download box, the next page that comes up, there is nothing to click on, only a box with the red x. That is as far as I can get.

why when I go to pull up a tech article or some such document that has images as part of the article, the images only show as a box with an "X"? The images tend to support the explanation of the text, but they aren't there. Is there a box within Windows Explorer or something in my Zone Alarm that I have to set in order to get these to show properly?

I have a Dell computer running Windows XP. I've noticed that certain websites are not displaying properly; graphics are missing from some pages (not all graphics, just one or two). For example, the banner at the top of nytimes.com will not show. There doesn't seem to be an order to the missing graphics; it seems to be randomly blocking certain graphics, both jpg and gif. If I visit a new site, I do not know if I'm seeing all there is to see

I want to change my desktop background, but when I go to OPTIONS, the images available are grayed out.? It it totally frozen. I cannot even put a theme in, the icons show up, but nothing else.I used to be able to change my background at will, putting photos I had taken up, but now when I go to those options, the only thing I can do is change the background color as the images (including the BROWSE button) are grayed out. I have tried just about every imaginable combination of modifying themes and choosing backgrounds, but still, the only thing I can do is change the color of the desktop. However, when I go to shut down the computer, the image I previously had selected shows briefly.

My HD crapped out on me so I bought a new one. My brother gave me a copy of Windows Black for my new OS, so I installed it. Everything was running smooth, (installing drivers, hardware and such) until I DL'ed Steam. I noticed a weird box on my screen. I'd scroll up or down and it would multiply. "Oh great" I thought. Un-installed Steam then re-installed my video card. Back to normal. Re-installed steam, same problem. GRRRRR.Finally gave up on Steam and just started browsing for other software to get. Out of nowhere the boxes show up again, so I know it's not a Steam problem. Maybe a video card problem? Maybe a Windows Black bug? I have no idea, but this is what I see on my desktop.

I hope i'm posting this in the correct forum. here goes. i have an acer aspire one netbook running windows xp. now, usually, i am able to go on the internet, go into my facebook or flickr account and if i want to take that photo and save it to my desktop so i can upload it to another forum or a blog, i right-click it, 'save as', and then a new window pops up and it lets me pick a folder where i want it to go. for some reason, when i right click on an image and hit 'save as', nothing happens. no window pops up. i know it's not one of those copyright/code things because i went into my own facebook account, right-clicked some photos in my own album, and it still won't let me save them into a chosen folder.

I cannot see some images in internet explorer, such as company logos, pictures, etc. There is no red x or "placeholder" shown, I just don't see it at all and wouldn't know it was supposed to be there except I was on another computer and noticed the look of some web pages was different. Not all images are missing, just some. I have tried changing the "view", also the check next to show images in "Advanced" tab of Internet Options IS checked. I have re-installed Macromedia and Java. I have tried turning off Ad Blocking on my Norton.

Not sure whether this is the right forum to post in. I looked for an answer but didn't find one.A few weeks ago I turned my computer on and found a message "NTLDR is missing". after a few restarts I decided to try and fix it, went into windows installation and did repair.In the repair window I started to wander across Drive C: and found out that alot of files are missing. so I decided to reinstall windows.After the installation I went to my old "My Documents" directory and found that it still exist but all the files in it were deleted.I'm now looking for a program to restore my images and music.

For a reason unknown to me, when I visit some webpages, instead of seeing some of the jpg or gif images that make up parts of a webpage I see the image box and a little red "x". Previously I have had no issues when I went to these pages, all the images would be visible. I have not intentionally changed any security settings, and dropping my firewall or Microsoft Antispyware does not seem to make a difference. I even dropped my security settings, but nothing. I have tried right clicking and then selecting "show
picture" but with no positive results.

Running Windows xp: I cannot view "most" pictures when I go to a site through Internet Explorer. For example.. if I go to myspace.com, I can't see any "friends" pictures, (not even my own) I have an account with photobucket and when I log in, all of the names of my pictures are there but not one picture is showing.. If I do a search for something, same thing. The pictures that I have saved in my computer are there..it's only when I'm using IE.
I recently downloaded software for a printer/scanner/fax machine from the internet which I know I shouldn't do but I had to! and I think I remember seeing somewhere in this forum that this could be my problem? I've already checked tools/Internet options/show pictures/ and view/encoding/Western European (which likes to jump and change itself now and then but I don't care about that right now!
