Tip #3200 - Red X Again

Red
X Again
After all the e-mails
I answer every day regarding "red x" issues, it's no surprise
to me that several of you are still struggling with this common problem
from time to time. I do believe I answer at least five e-mails each day
from people who cannot see images in the e-mail they receive. Since pictures
are a big part of the e-mail world, that's tough to deal with!
So, if you've already
tried everything you can think of and you still can't see any pictures,
what are you supposed to do? Well, I have one more suggestion for you.
By now, you should know that if you're having the "red x" problem
in Outlook Express, you need to change some of the settings, but what
if you use a Web
based e-mail program like Yahoo!, Hotmail, Gmail or AOL? Well, in
that case, the problem may lie in your Web browser.
If you use Internet
Explorer to check your e-mail, go to Tools, Internet
Options and click on the Advanced tab. Look
for the Multimedia section and make sure the box that
says "Show Pictures" is checked. For Firefox,
go to Tools, Options and click on the
Web Features icon. Make sure the "Load Images"
box is checked as well. This should correct all of the image settings
for the next time you check your e-mail. Now, just in case, read here
for even more clarification on this problem.
Now, hopefully that
pest of a "red x" will be gone for good!
