Shamelessly ripped from another NG:

Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Internet Options
Click the "Advanced" tab, Scroll down to "Multimedia",
check "Show pictures", and uncheck "Show image download
placeholders". Click "apply", "OK"

Also click the "General" tab, Under "Temporary Internet Files", click the
"Delete Files" button, check the box, "Delete all offline content", "OK".
After it finishes, click the "Settings" button and lower the amount
of disk space to use to 20 Meg. Click "OK", "Apply". That will increase
your hard drive space by how much was in that folder. I've seen it well over
a gig. Folders that big are prone to crosslinked files.
Clear it weekly, or sooner, especially if IE starts acting funny.

Also click the "Advanced" tab, scroll down to "Security", and check the box,
"Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed", click
"Apply", "OK"
