This has nothing to do with Bladeforums, but it is driving me crazy and if someone out there knows what the problem is it would sure help me out. I don't know enough about computers to know what is going on.

There seems to be certain peoples posts in which I can never get their pictures to come up. They appear to other people, but not to me. I have checked this on other computers and have had no trouble seeing the pictures.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what is happening and what I can do to solve this problem. I am using IE 6 and have a firewall. The firewall was there before I changed to IE 6 and has not been uninstalled and then re-installed. I don't know if this could cause the problem. BTW the other computers that I was using also had IE 6 as their browser.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
 
You may be having a proxy server or cached page problem.

Hit Shift + Reload / Refresh and see if that works. Are the computers where you *can* see the pictures on another network / ISP from the one having problems?

Which people specifically are giving you problems? What are the exact threads? Which exact posts?

Kevin, the problem happens on any post by beknives such as:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=175821
Or by Shotgunone:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=164703
And in the response by nyfman in my thread:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=176526

The other computers were not on the same ISP. Also the links to web pages do not work. I get a "this page can not be displayed" message. This is the same whether I use the link or type in the web address myself. The pictures just come up as red Xs. It also seems to take for ever for the threads to load.
 
Nyfman's picture doesn't work for me either.

Anyone using free image hosting may wind up with this sort of problem... other people not being able to see it.

I can see the pictures in the other two threads though...
