on two different web sites i use, photos on these sites won't appear. I have
checked all my pop-up blocker settings, and permitted access to these sites
with my security program. Please Help

Which Browser (IE) ? - do you see what is called a Place Holder in the
place of the photos ? If they (pages) are part of the "Internet Zone" how
is that particular Zone configured (Default or Custom) or Security Level.

Do you mean you've added them to the "Trusted Zone" ? I would
check the Add-ins and also the Advanced options in IE's Internet
Tools menu, concentrating on the Multimedia category. As a quick
check, I'd log in to another account and see if the pages render
properly using that account, if no - then it's likely something your
security software/settings is blocking.

I responded to another person in this group about a problem that sounds
similar to yours. I will just copy/paste my response here. The problem
could be that you are being blocked from the url where the picture is
stored. Many sites get their pictures off other servers. I hope it helps.

I experienced this same problem and some nice person in this newsgroup
posted the solution that fixed everything.
He said to use Windows Explorer and go to the folder
Windows\System32\Drivers\etc and rename the file Host to something else such
as Host_old. Be sure it is the file named Host with no file extension.
After renaming the file just reboot and you should be good to go.
