I am using BT Yahoo - Mozilla Firefox with Windows XP professional and Service Pack 2. There is a news section on the home page but any news item accompanied with still images (e.g Chinese New Year Celebrations on Jan 22)the images are blanked out. I have tried the solution provided by cor-el but it failed.

You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:

  • Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
  • Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
  • Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
  • If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Many thanks, that seems to have sorted the problem OK. I wonder how the item got checked in the first place!
