HELP!!! I am totally baffled and starting to feel really stupid. I have 2 HP Laptops both running windows 7 using same versions of IE8 and Firefox. On one of the laptops I can view pictures/images on all websites without any problems. However, on the other laptop I can not view pictures and images on most 99% of websites. There may be a picture showing here or there but for the most part, the pages are mainly text. I have gone through all the settings comparing them to the "Good Laptop", I have tried clearing the cache, disabling pop-ups, disabling/enabling add on and plugins, etc. I have checked off Show Images, but nothing works. I know I must be missing something but I can't figure out what. I also have a desktop running XP sp3 with the same exact browsers and I can view all the same websites without any problems. It is only on this one laptop. Does anyone have any other suggestions to try as I am at a loss. I had read all the threads on this topic on this and other tech support sites and have tried everything that was suggested. I really need to get this problem fixed asap. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion however it did not work. I also restored the default settings in firefox as well but I still cant view most pictures. I really dont know what to try next as I have tried everything suggested.
I appreciate your prompt reply to my post.
Have a nice evening.

Thanks again joeten. I tried that as well but no luck. I still cant see most of the images and graphics. Even the boxes where you need to sign in to your account that some websites have do not show. I just have to click around the sign in are until I find the exact location of the sign in box.
I am getting ready to reformat the hard drive and start over. I hate doing this because I have so much on it and it is going to take a long time getting everything reloaded. But, if I can't figure this out I will have not other choice.
I do appreciate you taking the time to suggest other options. THANK YOU!!
Hello Kenny. That did the trick. My new user account is able to view all the websites correct. Pictures/images and all. Now how can I get those settings on to the original user. Can the users be merged??
Thanks so much. This is progress.

I would use the new account, copy what you need from the other account, then delete the old account..
after deleting you can rename the new one if you want..
good luck
