I can't even understand the page because it doesn't have the description of one of the pictures of what could happen. I see a red square, a green circle, and a blue triangle.

I'm having the same problem as William, Michelle and Sarah -- the solid red box, but only on one website. As this is happening in both Explorer and Firefox, I'm wondering if this might be a Java issue?

I am getting white boxes with red x's on myspace and also some emails I receive. I have followed your instructions but nothing seems to work. Can you please help? Thank you.

I am having the same problem as some other people so I have avoided the Yahoo homepage. Here is my problem on my Yahoo homepage, the pictures in the boxes are not showing I am getting the box filled entirely with the color red. It is very frustrating. HELP

Thanks buddy,
It really works.

All of that didn't work, I guess it is important top note that this only happens in vista

this article helped me soo much! after i read it it, the problem seemed so simple but i just couldnt figure out how to get pictures to show up on my pages. i was in the right advanced area i just didnt know where to look

long story short....THANKS ALOT!!!

Thanks....all I needed to do was click "Show Pictures" and everything cleared up....boy IE7 can sure cause some trauma!!!

I only have trouble seeing the Yahoo pictures (I get red blocks like many of you) when my Verizon Internet Security Suite is on. When I disconnect that, everything is fine, but then I don't want to leave my computer unprotected. I don't know how to turn off whatever setting is stopping me from seeing the imsges. But it's really annoying.

Of all the articles I've read about the red X's NONE of them address the problem if you are running att yahoo e-mail. They do NOT have the same commands that Outlook Express has. Does ANYONE have the problem with ATT Yahoo ???
