Mozilla won't load pics from some websites and i have to use ie to see them. Why? Is there some setting I need to change?

Did you block them? You can right-click any image and choose "Block images from this server". If you already blocked the server, you can unblock with a right-click where the picture would be. There should be a list of the blocked sites in the options somewhere.

What sites? (Assuming they are safe to link.) It would help to see if it is specific to your copy.

In addition to what CTho9305 said, if you're running WinXP (maybe w2k also?), go to windows > system32 > drivers > etc > look for file with no extension simply called "hosts". This file may or may not be there, and may or may not be empty; it's a simple method of making your PC think certain domains (i.e. known advertiser ones) are located on a IP which is actually pointing at your own machine. Entries usually look like, for example:

127.0.0.1 doubleclick.net

Open with notepad and see if the domains where these pics are from is in there. If so you can delete that line if you want.
