    Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

    I don't know what happened, I must have clicked something. Basically all images on all sites I'm on disappeared. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the browser, figured that wouldn't work though. I've looked in Tools > Options > Content and it the Load up images automatically box is checked. I did something else in Tools> Adblock > Whitelist the whole site and refreshed the page which brought images back but if I click another page it's down to nothing again.

    Here's an example: bbcgrab.jpg

    I've been having a problem with Firefox and IE too. It just doesn't display images and the layout on some pages is messed up. I have the image option turned on in the Internet options and the style sheets are attached. It just doesn't work. I started to get this problem about a week ago so I downloaded the latest Firefox and IE but it didn't fix it, any suggestions?

    there are other ways to block ads, you can configure your cookie settings to block cookies from the big ad servers like double click and adtech.
    Go into your privacy options and select cookies and add the offending cookies to the expections list.

    Firefox 2.0 isn't as clear as earlier versions as you could set it to automatically add any removed cookie list to the exceptions list but it looks like this is the standard setting on 2.0.

    Rizzla perhaps you can check the internet settings in the security centre, look under the custom settings on the security level. Are you using a firewall?

    Admiralgar, how so? does it appear on the bottom right of the screen? When you right click on an ad does it give you a block option?
