Sometimes this can be because the picture can't be displayed on the website (may have been deleted by accident or renamed so it can't find it)

You can try pressing CTRL + F5 on the keyboard, this will do a force refresh, it will download everything on that page again. It might fix it for you

Heya,

Can you try Mozilla Firefox for me to see if it works, I know thats using a different browser to test on but it will give me a bit of help diagnosing the problem

A link to firefox is here http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/product...win&lang=en-GB

Thanks,
Matt

Click Start, and then click Run.

In the Open box, type regedit, and then press ENTER.

Locate and click the following registry key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.gif

Double-click the Content Type value in the right pane of the Registry Editor.

In the Edit String dialog box, type image/gif (if it's not there) in the Value Data box, and then click OK.

Locate and click the following registry key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg

Double-click the Content Type value in the right pane of the Registry Editor.

In the Edit String dialog box, type image/jpg (if it's not there) in the Value Data box, and then click OK.

Quit the Registry Editor.

Reboot.

Start Internet Explorer and open any Web page with a JPG or a GIF image.
