theres some setting (assuming its IE8 or similar) in tools, internet options, then the advanced tab, theres a tick box in there for displaying pictures. make sure thats ticked/unticked (which ever is correct)

i have unticked it and now i have a little "picture" if that makes sense but not the actual image

just had a look at the mnues and the box says 'show pictures' next to it, so it should be ticked. weird...

changes it from red cross to a small a small "picture" but still no image
