Images not showing up in IE 8 on Vista
Using IE - I just upgraded to 8 from an earlier version. In both versions, images do not show up (replaced by a red x). This is on many web pages, for example the graphs in google analytics. All show up fine in Firefox.
I've seen similar problems addressed in this exchange, but no answer to my specific issue.
Thanks for help!

The option was already checked - show pictures is enabled. Note that most images on pages show up - the google analytics does not, and I see this on other web pages, but not all web pages.
Here is a web page with a flash landing page - www.belindanorrisevents.com
Moving along - maybe the images not showing up are Flash, I think the image problem is with Flash - looking at google analytics dashboard on Firefox, the graphs are Flash, I think.

Then you should try downloading the newest Adobe Flash and Java.
Good luck :)

I have downloaded the latest Adobe Flash and Sun Java. Rebooted. This does not fix the problem.

I think I will uninstall IE, if Windows will let me, and reinstall.

Could you try to set Internet Explorer security settings to Low, you for testing?
It could be that you need to click Reset to defaults first.

The settings for Active-X have always been there, I have not changed any settings in the security area as a result of this issue.
Just now, I reset to medium (the lowest there is). Then I went to look at the Active-X setting you mention above, and it is set so resetting does not change it.
I restarted IE, and the problem is still there.

1. In Internet Explorer go to Tools > Internet Options

3. Scroll down to Multimedia and see if you have "Show pictures" ticked. If not, tick it, and try again.
