Please try the steps here: Fix problems that cause images to not show and let us know how it helps.

Yes, I found my own site "banned" ((Tools-->Options-->Content-->Exceptions). I have no idea how it happened.

Many thanks

It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right-click context menu while saving an image.

I search google images for graphics ideas using firefox version 4 - what's happening is google images first page usually loads the thumbnail images but pages 2 and beyond don't load no matter how long i wait, no matter how many times i refresh.

I thought i'd go over to (god forbid) IE9 but it doesn't even recognize that i'm online so that didn't wark.

Since getting rid of add-ons and doing the safe mode thing hasn't worked for others, i can't see me following their path and coming up shy of a solution. if anyone has a sure-fire fix, please let me know because this problem has been happening since my firefox 4 install, weeks ago, and it's driving me nuts.

Thanks, in advance, for anything you can contribute - it's appreciated ;)
