    Pics Will Stop Loading
    Hi, everything works fine at first, then something triggers pics and flash to stop loading or playing on internet pages. For example, the html will be there but not the pics if I view a Myspace page. Everything but the pics loads up after surfing a few pages or so...

    I have a hunch that a setting is incorect or needs to be changed because maybe I'm filling up some capacity or something. I say this because it never happened before and it now happens if I go to some Myspace sites or use AOL or other sites that demand a lot from a PC. I am using Win2K with 512MB RAM, and at 870Mhz P3 (weak by today's standards I know). This has only been a problem since people like AOL etc have become more resorce hungry.

    I have tried clearing cache and temp internet files but it doesn't fix it... only shutting down the PC and restarting does. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Try using an interweb browser other than the AOL native browser

    Thanks you, but I'm not using AOL for a browser at all... just for mail in one window. I use IE as a browser. Also, the problem seems like it mostly effects flash and pics on Myspace for some reason.

    You can try Firefox and see what happens. It's a far superior browser than IE anyway.

    Hi Steve. Well, I'm worried about trying it because installing it changed settings, defaults, and I don't care much for Firefox. I use IE at work with no problems so I don't want to blame the browser here.
