Hello,
I have been having an issue for a few weeks that I cannot seem to fix. Absolutely none of the images on the Café i.e the magic Café logo above the search box, and all the coffee cups to the left of the posts, and the "You have a new private message" box, are showing up. I know it's a firefox thing because my wife uses IE (for reasons unknown to me) and the images are loading just fine. I got to the point where I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled, and that did nothing. Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Any other website I visit everything is loading fine, it is JUST the magic Café! Interesting... huh?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Aaron, I don't use firefox but here's a previous topic that might help resolve your problem.

Thank you Dave! I read through those posts and I have tried all of that. Also, it's a little more than not being able to see the ' on the Café. I can't see any images at all. At first I thought maybe they were broken links, but since everything works fine in IE, then that cannot be the issue. I tried checking cookies, I tried reinstalling firefox, I even tried checking my character encoding in both "view" and Tools/options. I'm am completely lost with this...

It was worth a shot. Like I said, I don't use firefox so can't offer much other help. I do have it loaded and just looked. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong so I've got to assume it's a setting you have. Hopefully some more knowledgeable than I in that area will chime in here.

I appreciate your help Dave, thank you. I think you are right.. it has to be some setting that is out of whack.

I'm on Firefox as I type this and images are no problem. Try this Click Tools Click Options Click Content (Automatically load images should be checked) Click the EXCEPTIONS button to the right of "Auto load images" See is the Café shows up in the list (if so remove it from the list) Barring the checks above, you might want to update FF. Also I'm running XP SP3 with Windows updated each morning (security thing) Cheers Frank |

Hello Frank! Thank you so much for chiming in! I have made sure that my load images auto box is checked, and the issue remains. I am also running the latest version of FF 3.6.9. This problem is really driving me crazy. It just happened out of nowhere! I'm also running Windows 7.

Ok.. I fixed it!! In the event someone else has this issue... I ended up using a program called Revo Uninstaller Pro. This software will not only uninstall a program but clean up any leftover files or folders that linger around when you use the normal windows uninstaller. I'm assuming that when I uninstalled firefox before, the glitch stuck around. I had to sacrifice all my bookmarks, but the problem vanished! I then simply reinstalled the latest version of Firefox and Wah-lah problem solved!

Good on you. I think if you do a reinstall it will give you the option to repair the current install. This will many time fix problems without uninstalling and re-installing. Cheers Frank |

Frank, Thank you. I also tried repairing at one point when I was pulling my hair out with this thing, and that unfortunately did not work. I have never seen a bug like this before, what a nightmare!

I used "Revo Uninstaller Pro" before also. After it helped me fix my problem, I uninstalled "Revo Uninstaller Pro" because I felt uncomfortable it could lead to a virus or adware.
