    I'm looking at an XP machine running a French version of IE7. It appears to be blocking pictures, but, apart from the fact that I don't use IE7 myself, it's in French so I have no idea how to configure it.

    I'm guessing that there's a security setting that needs adjusting. If someone can tell me where to look, I can probably skin around the language barrier.

    Messy Beecoop :)

    Hi masonite,

    You sure have some wierd problems :)

    Assuming "blocking" means the pics don't show in the web site, and not about being able to download pics.

    In IE's Internet Options > Advanced tab > under Multimedia, see if "show pictures" is checked.

    Multimedia is the next category after java if that helps.

    Thanks Charlesvar. Yeah, I seem to get some doozies. Mind you, I'll always ask a question, even if I think I can bull my way through it, because all answers will get added to this gi-normous cyber-database we call the 'net' and will invariably benefit other folks.

    I'll try your suggestion as soon as I get the guy's HDD back in it's case and I'll report back. As I said, I don't use IE7 so I've no idea where any of the settings are, let alone in a French version.

    Cheers :)

    You were right, Charlesvar, that was the problem - 'show pics' wasn't checked.

    Thanks again :)
