Re: Some images displayed while others are not .....Help!

Hello Jan,

I was able to see your posts in the other forum :) I do not have Spyblaster,
the only spyware programs I now have is ad-aware and spybot s & d. I
downloaded and installed a new security suite from Kaspersky which has
antivirus, firewall and spam blocker, I uninstalled Etrust antivirus and
microsoft antispyware, as I was hopeing that would clear up whatever is
causing this problem but it did not change anything so the problem has
nothing to do with those 2 programs. Will keep you updated if anything
changes or this some how gets fixed.
