The past couple of days I can't see any images on the board or front page using IE 7, except for avatars. All I see is the place holder for the image.
If I copy the pic's location and put that in IE I can see the image, just not in the topic. I tried clearing IE cache - but that doesn't help.
Everything works fine in Firefox.
Any ideas? Perhaps MS new security update for IE 7 causes a problem?
Thanks
Edit:
I can see older pictures using this format:
Code: Select allhttp://forum.ppcwarez.org/files/images/xxxxxx.jpg

But not new pictures using this format:

I don't have IE7, but I would say it doesn't like the way we are not using direct linking to the images. We are not using the .jpg file, we are passing it through a download script first, and it doesn't seem to like this on your computer. Do you have any programs installed that may block these images? I am thinking a firewall, or some protecter program that may think it's not a valid image because it doesn't have an image extention (.jpg)?

Can anyone else using IE7 please let me know if they have this problem? I don't have IE7.

Maybe you need to clear all the cookies and history before entering this site :). Or a better option, install firefox :D

I did clear everything. The reason I'm using IE is because I use Irider browser, which is a shell of IE. It's very strange because only some images don't show.

As per my previous post your browser may not recognize it as an image because it doesn't have an image extention, all new uploads go through the download.php script therefore the image may not render properly in some browsers that don't allow it, they're expecting jpg, gif, png etc and not php.

I'm using only XP firewall, MS Antispyware, and NOD32 antivirus.
