Pictures don't show up in IE on windows 7 PCs in domain

I have added several Windows 7 PCs to our Domain, both 32 & 64 bit & all seems to be fine except for 1 problem. When going to different websites, some sites show all pictures, videos, etc. but some don't. They show a box with red x in it. They are using IE8 & IE9, no difference. I have installed, tried, uninstalled & reinstalled Java, Flash player, etc....no difference. We have a windows XP PC that has no problem displaying the images/videos & it is also on the Domain. The DC is windows 2008r2 with all current updates. I tried turning off the local PC firewall but still no go.
Is there a group policy I'm not setting? If so, why does the XP PC display just fine?
Sites like fox sports are fine but one site in particular is  http://www.israelnationalnews.com/     that doesn't display the pics.  I have no problem with the windows 7 PC when it is not on the Domain it seems.

Thanks,
JC

Update
I used my windows 7 laptop not joined on the Domain & all displayed fine. Joined it to the Domain & it failed to display the pics. I assume it is group policy on DC at this point. Just have to figure out how to change/allow it.
Yes, I tried that. The problem only happens when the computer is logged on the Domain, not when you log on locally. Hmmmmm...?
Just an idea...
Dependend from the policies, so i.e. to use a proxy or firewall which resides in the domain, these devices may cause timeouts, either they don't allow the pictures (or source of the pictures) at all or they are just to slow and the picture times out.

You usuall yhave the option to right click and download the picture. If not, then the picture or picture source maybe blocked by a device in the network.

You may try to change or just observe the browser proxy settings to confirm this possibility.
I try to right click "show picture" but the picture still does not appear. The page is slow loading but not long enough to time out, I believe.
