No Images Showing On Emails

[Ann]

For the past 2 weeks I haven't been able to see images on emails until I click on the instruction "click here to see images" which is a real pain. All I can see are boxes with a red cross in the corner. I have never had problems before and I haven't changed any settings that I'm aware of. I use Outlook Express 6, Windows XP and Firefox. Methyl asked me to quote service pack number but sorry methyl I don't know how to find that out.

Thanks very much Chris.

It is Windows XP
Home Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 3

Tried your link Chris, ta, but seems to apply to service pack 2. Found the bwhich I could tick to see blocked images but already ok.

Ann, did you ever look at the answers you got when you posted this question week before last?

Sorry Prudie, I did look but was called away - been extremely busy in the past two weeks organising my Mums funeral etc. I should have said "thank you" to everyone - I usually do, but just forgot on this occasion. I have tried everything people have suggested but it hasn't solved it. Thanks all.

Methyl - now it has only just gone like this, been working perfectly until 2 weeks ago.

*No not now

//Do you see a line suggesting that you click to view images//
Yes methyl I do see that at the top of most emails but I never used to have to click on that until 2 weeks ago, the images were there as soon as I opened the email. Still puzzled why it has suddenly changed.

Ann I din't mean thanks but rather had you loked at the suggestions - because I thought at the time it was to do with clicking the line at the top. I don't know why yours wouldn't have had that before but it is standard on most e-mails. Mine at home and at work all show pictures as red crosses unless you click the top line and always have. So really you do have a solution, at least you know how to see the pictures now.
