When seeking to register into froums i cannot see the picture of the code caption to establish that i am a human. Also thumbnails on Utube are always blank

Does this happen in Firefox Safe Mode? Are you blocking images in any way?

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.

• Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"

• Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
• Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"

• Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down 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.

Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.

There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

• Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I don't know if i am in safe mode? How does one get into safe mode? How can you tell you are in safe mode. Also i will go to another site called thottbot.com where it shows you maps of location of characters in the game wow. all i ever see is blank box where the map should be just like my black box thumbnails on Utube.

Adstar: Ok went through these steps did not find any problems.''

thanks for your help

You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe mode:

• Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
• On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
• On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
