Wait for a while please.

When you cleared these cookies did you have the forum open? I mean you have been logged in.

Airframes · 10-18-2009, 03:53 PM

I'm not sure if I had the forum open the first time, but I've just done it again, with the forum still running, and there's no difference. Should I try it after logging out?
One thing though, when I log out, I get a page displaying all cookies cleared, return to etc etc. Normally, I would then either log off the Internet, or go to another web-site. Is there a quick way of getting from the 'cookies cleared' display to the IE home page, or will it be OK to do the deleting with the above mentioned page still displaying?

I think you should log out. THen click the nest icon on your workbench with right mouse button and choos the Properties.The rest of steps to clear cookies like above. It is possible that cookies for the forum site weren't deleted as the foum site was in usage.

Possible causes of this problem are:

* The Web page includes an image type not supported by Internet Explorer.
* The Show Pictures check box is not selected on the Advanced tab of Internet Options dialog box or the Toggle Images.exe Web is used for images in Internet Explorer to disable.
* The image is displayed based on a script, ActiveX control, cookie, Java-based program or HTTP referral information. In addition to the computer or the network settings of a force or more of these functions block. Suppose you have Microsoft Internet Explorer or Norton Internet Security (NIS) or Norton Personal Firewall (NPF) 2002 Symantec Corporation configured to program one or more of these functions blocks.
* Internet Explorer can not determine the character (also called code page or encoding) is used on the webpage. It is also possible that a file or registry key required to display the Web page is missing or damaged. Internet Explorer will use the default character set specified in the HTTP server returned content type, or the character set specified by the meta element in the web document. If no HTTP content type the server is returned and no meta element is specified in the Web document, use Internet Explorer your Encoding preference.

So in the last case the re-installing the IE should help.

But I think it did.
Last one could be checked. Terry would have to had log in again if the cookie was deleted.

Yep....

Airframes · 10-18-2009, 04:12 PM

Wojtek, I'll log out and try again.
Marcel, thanks for that info. According to the set up, everything is set correctly. My images are uploading, and other users can see them, it's just that i can't open my pictures or anyone elses. the only things that have changed in the last 24 hours are my changing to Firefox, when I could still upload images which others could see, but were not showing in the 'Attached Images' box on my screen, and then changing back to IE, which was the updated version 8.
However, when I was uploading the set of 8 pics in my post, I accidentally clicked the right button on the mouse, and I don't know where the cursor was lying at the time. this was when the screen showed 'Attached mages' message, but no boxes for each image. I had to go back into 'manage Attachements' and upload again, when they appeared, eventually, in a set, on screen, instead of the usual block of, in this case, 8 boxes each with an 'X' which open when keying Shift + R.
I'm going to log out now and clear things again, so I'll be back in a couple of minutes or so. Thanks for all your help and suggestions so far.

Wurger · 10-18-2009, 04:16 PM

Terry after that I suggest to restart your computer as well..

Airframes · 10-18-2009, 04:32 PM

Well, I've once again gone in and cleared everything as before, and there's still no change. I'll do it again, and shut down and re-start the computer this time.
But, I wasn't clear on which icon you suggested I should right-click on Wojtek - I did it via the 'Tools' button, and 'Internet Options'.
Baxck in a bit, after the computer rep-starts. Might take a few minutes, as every start up is delayed by spyware scans and so on!!

Lucky13 · 10-18-2009, 05:02 PM

Hope that things work out for you Terry!

Marcel · 10-18-2009, 05:14 PM

As a last resort you could get back to the last "safetypoint before you installed Firefox. It might do the trick.

Airframes · 10-18-2009, 05:39 PM

Not sure what you mean Marcel. I've eventually got back here, as Windows decided to install yet more updates as I went to shut down, then It took ages to re-start!
I've had enough of this for today, I've been trying off and on for over 13 hours now, and I'm getting confused due to fatigue I think! I'm going to log out, re-install Firefox, and try again tomorrow, to see if that makes any difference. If it doesn't, then this computer is going to be taken into the hills, and destroyed with 20 rounds of NATO 7.62mm ball, and I'll take up crochetting or lace work instead!!!

Wurger · 10-18-2009, 05:45 PM

If you want to destroy the comp Terry use the Kalashnikov AKM 7.62 mm MG. THe effect will be better.

Could you tell me if there is possibility of getting the repair option when using IE uninstaller?

Airframes · 10-18-2009, 05:46 PM

Strange - I've just looked at 'Who's Online', and according to that page, I was viewing the Group Build Icons thread! I haven't been anywhere near that for months! Is there something wrong with my user I.D somewhere now??!!!
