Images don't load in Yahoo. I have followed all the recommended steps with no luck in getting it to work. This started a couple of days ago and I need help.

Do you use Avast? If so, this has been affecting many Avast users...

Avast Web Shield

There is a recent issue with one of the Web Shield features blocking some images on Yahoo. You could try switching off scanning HTTPS connections to see whether this is the cause in your case:

  1. Open the Avast dashboard on the affected system.
  2. Select Settings from the left sidebar menu.
  3. Switch to Active Protection.
  4. Click on Customize next to Web Shield.
  5. Uncheck the "Enable HTTPS Scanning" option and click ok
