72586 2002-08-20 04:34:00 Why do I sometimes get little red crosses in a box instead of pictures in my emails, is there a plugin that I should download?
Thankyou peoples!

72587 2002-08-20 04:42:00 Usually that means the link is inactive, try clicking "Show Picture" as that helped back when i was running 95 and 98 if it doesn't show, what speed are you on for anet connectiong and what OS, also, browser version???

Thanks Arjay

72590 2002-08-21 09:09:00 Hi Arjay, the 'show pictures' refered to are in IE/tools/internetoptions/advanced but if it is only some pictures that don't show its more likely to be a file format issue. If the files that fail to show have a file extension of .tif or .tiff then you will need a plugin for IE. The one I have found to work well is called ALTERNATIFF and can be found at www.alternatiff.com. There is an auto-install download on the first page.
