Why can I not view anyone's pics on profiles?

Everytime I click on someone's pics, I just get a list of what pics are one there, but can't view any of them.

Anyone know?

Dunno.

I just checked if I could see them (in case it was an MN issue rather than just you) and it worked. Maybe you've got super vigilent firewalls that won't allow it?

I can see serenity's pics - very nice btw

serenity · 17/02/2007 10:13

You need to yell at Tech, or maybe St George, isn't she techy?

satine · 17/02/2007 14:01

I'm the same - I think it's my super strict anti-virus programme.

princessmel · 17/02/2007 14:06

I can see them . It must be your pc

SaintGeorge · 17/02/2007 14:07

What browser are you using?

serenity · 17/02/2007 14:17

I was right! But I spelt your name wrong sorry

RustyBear · 17/02/2007 14:50

heavenis had this problem yesterday - she was talkng to tech about it - not sure if he came up with anything.

Aero · 17/02/2007 17:43

Well, blueyonder is my ISP, so I guess we're just using their browser [dim emoticon for not being sure what a browser is] We also have McAfee anti virus installed.

We'll ask tech if he can shed any light.

Sorry you're having trouble

I think it might be something McAfee is doing.

Is there a help section within McAfee that you can search for 'image blocking'?

SaintGeorge · 17/02/2007 19:10

Try this , especially the bit at the bottom about Web Bugs. Might be worth a try.

Aero · 17/02/2007 22:53

Thanks Carrie and StG. Will have a look.

OP posts:
Tech · 18/02/2007 15:50

Thanks, SaintGeorge. We'll take a look at the way we display member pictures - and make the urls look less like "web bugs", which might make the problem go away.

Tech · 19/02/2007 03:03

Hi,

We've made a change so the "addresses" of the pictures look a bit different (more like regular files), which may help with the issue reported here. Let us know either way. It's a long shot, but might work.

Cheers,
Tech

Aero · 19/02/2007 13:50

Hooraaaaaaaaaaay. Thanks so much Tech. You're a whizz.

StG, your boys are gorgeous and like you.

SaintGeorge · 19/02/2007 18:07

Wow, did my help so much Tech fixed it?

Thank you Aero, they are yummy if I say so myself. Although gorgeous and like me is a bit of a contradiction!
