    Ok, more news from me....

    IE8 and not signed in I get the X marks the spot.
    IE8 and signed in I still get the X.

    Firefox and signed in I get the pictures.
    Firefox and signed out I still get the pictures.

    What Browsers are you X people using??

Do you have any sort of ad blocker or any other type of security software installed? These often wrongly identify images on a website as ads if they are from a different domain and can be blocked depending on your settings, eg if you have your images stored elsewhere (for example I store mine on my domain adventureguide.co.nz) and they are embedded into advrider.com, ad blockers often don't show them because they think they are cross domain ads.

    If this is the case, right click on the image that is not being displayed, there should be an option to "allow display of images from this domain" or "add an exception", or something similar depending on the particular software you are running...

    Hope that helps mate
    Not being able to access pictures on certain sites is part of my on going connection saga. My network has been unstable & slow since 9am today & it is all DNS related. Been having issues on & off for nearly 2 weeks now.
    Telecom assures me I'm not the only one with this problem which is just as well because I have the log of DNS faults & was expecting the usual, "everything's ok here mate" line.

    Rang a certain ISP a couple of weeks ago, told them there was international routing issues, asked him to load certain pages to prove my point.

    Didn't quite work out... got told that Microsoft, Facebook, Google, etc, had ALL been having issues all day.

    Really?

    Just got into work and had another look at this, I am confident to say the issue is not DNS related at all, it is simply a case of IE8 not supporting the image path as it is not an absolute url path but a server side parsed url redirected to an image file located on the server.

    To test this, paste this into the address bar of Firefox and it will connect to an image file and offer an option to download or view the image:

    advrider.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=179060&stc=1&d=1217115733

    Paste it into IE8 and it you'll see it can't handle the url and has a hissy fit

    Firefox can view them because Firefox is AWESOME while IE has had multiple browser compliance issues since the day it was launched, in short, IE compatibility issues are a web developers worst nightmare and why the majority of developers hate IE with a passion. Best to let the ADV tech guys know and no doubt they'll be able to rectify it quick smart.

    I have pointed the local ADVRider Mod to this thread - hopefully it will be of some use.
    Again, thanks for the help guys - awesome response.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.
