IE6, small forum icons not displaying

[ArmchairAthlete]

This problem has been around for awhile, I'm not sure what causes it or how to solve it. Sometimes small icons on forums do not show. Usually the ones that tell you about post, the envelope that shows if it is a new post, if you have participated in it, etc.

It occurs on other forums as well, and occasionally on some web pages small images won't load.

Right clicking and selecting "Show Image" will get the images to show up properly.

I would clean up all your temp files, etc. and run adaware/spyboot.

No good =(

had the same issue, fixed it when I reformatted...

Though I would check your Receive Buffer and MTU settings.

I'm looking right now, but where are these settings?

For grins, try this.

Start--> Run--> REGEDIT

Go to File--> Export --> and save a backup of your registry somewhere in case you need to IMPORT it back.

Now find the key \HKey_Local_Mcahine\SOFTWARE\Classes\PROTOCOLS\Name-Space Handler\

Delete any folder under that heading except for MK (possibilities are HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP).

Now find the key \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Name-Space Handler\

Delete the same things if they exist (making sure to keep MK).

Close REGEDIT, reboot, and see if it happens again.

Just switch to firebird 😉

Thanks deadsea.

I want a browser that displays ALL pages correctly (now that it is fixed =P). I've heard too many complaints about pages loading messed up or not at all with other browsers, so no thx.

IE6 + a handful of choice plugins for me.

Nevermind, it didn't work.

This doesn't happen all the time so I wasn't sure it was gone till it popped up again after a reboot.
