Can't see some icons or pictures in IE when looking at websites
Hi - many months ago I got into Windows XP and changed a setting in it that I
would like to get back. If I am in my own account I can't see some of the buttons you can click to go places or other things such as that. In order to see everything properly in websites I have to use my husband's account. Does anyone out there know what I did and how to change it back?? Thanks |

Does anyone out there know what I did and how to change it back?? Thanks A couple of thoughts, but I suspect neither are the answer: You might have turned off pictures (images). If so, though, you'll not see _any_ pictures; your use of the word "some" in the subject suggests that you can see some pictures in web pages, in which case this isn't the answer. You might have turned off some scripting: It wouldn't surprise me if some websites are now using Javascript even for buttons. Oh, a long-shot: I don't know if a lot of sites use common third-party image sources for some common buttons, and you've somehow blocked a common such site; seems unlikely though. Hopefully, someone will come along with a more likely solution than any of the above. It would be I think helpful if you could give us the URL of a web page in which you can see some things but not others, and you tell us which things you can and can't see (or at least one thing you can and one you can't) on it. Please pick a simple page if possible (-: -- J. P. Gilliver.

Barb,open IE and go to ToolsInternet OptionsUnder Security Tab set each
zone for Default. Under Advanced Tab Scroll down a check boxes that are next to a missing feature such as Show pictures. If you are interested in adding features go to ViewToolbars. Check which one you want. "Barb" wrote in message ... Hi - many months ago I got into Windows XP and changed a setting in it that I would like to get back.

Check: Control Panel | Accessory Options | Display | Use High Contrast If that setting is enabled, turn it off. |
