Title: greyghost
Post by: Reeves on June 18, 2008, 08:18:09 AM
Last two days when I view a topic with any new pictures posted all I see are those white boxes with a red x in it.
This is happening on several forums.
Any ideas ?
Off to run a couple scans....


OK, ran two bug scans, Spybot S&D and AdAware , then dumped the Temp files and it's still doing it.
Would it be some setting in the computer I'm unaware of ?

Another unrelated ....with the home comp, those e-con thingys will not animate, unless I right click them and choose: "show original picture". Is this also some setting I can change ?

No problems on this end, everything works.  Did ya clean out the cookies and all of that kind of toyota (garbage)?

If you weren't surfing those questionable websites constantly, you probably wouldn't be getting bugs?    LOL!

I'm not any good at computer diagnosis unless I'm setting there looking at it in person.

Good Luck!

If you've tried' ctrl+F5' to hard refresh and clear all temp internet files and that hasn't worked, (if your using Internet Explorer) you could try looking in 'options' there are those little boxes to tick for javascript and active x, maybe check if those are ticked.

Turns out PhotoBucket got hacked and will be back up in a day or so. When I clicked on favorites link, it re-directed me to a get a free web site thingy. Even tried through Google to get into Phototbucket and it did the same thing.
However, this morning there is a message from Photobucket with the above info.....so nothing wrong with the computer !

Thanks Reeves, and everyone else.  I was having the same trouble and thought I would wait and see what the rest of the group might come up with.  When it comes to computers I don't have a clue on how to go about any repairs. Just computer illiterate
