webs browsers - solid red blocks where graphics should be

joe pineapples · 16 Mar 2006 at 15:49

Trying to help someone sort this problem out. Both Internet Explorer (6) and Firefox (1.5) display web pages with a solid red colour, where i imagine graphics should be, but text is displayed ok. Any graphics in the windows O.S itself are fine.

Forgot to mention, it alos displays the red as the background colour on some sites.

I imagine its something to do with a resource that both browsers use, but no idea what, or how to fix it. anyone come across this before?.

cheers

have you got any ad blockers installed?

actually yes - i believe he's using Blue Yonder's own pcguard program, which i remember seeing has an adblocker running. I'll get him to disable it tomorrow,and see what happens.

thanks for the suggestion
