i had the same thing the other day...i thought i was going mad or their was a problem with the site. What it is, is your firewall. If you disable it as a test and then refresh the screen you should be able to see all the settings. What happened with mine is im guessin what has happened with your's is that somebody has been playing around, and changed your browsers privacy level. To get around this then either turn privacy off on your firewall or choose a custom level. If you don't know how to do this then tell me what firewall you have and il try my best to run thru it with you

its all to do with the browser privacy controls. Basically you have to set it to the custom level so that browser privacy is not enabled. Once you can see that the pics have loaded enable the firewall again by clickin on the globe and then i think yer m8 Scott will talk you thru the rest...

Nice answers.... shame they're mostly wrong. Well, apart from Chimp.
You don't need to even look at the browser privacy controls in IE, never mind change them.
It was me that made a post a few days ago explaining what was wrong with images not appearing on firewalled machines. Had to sort the same thing out on JamesUK's new PC the other day too.

Anyone else who doesn't understand how to sort Norton Firewall, you go into Advanced Options and add http://www.fiestaturbo.com to the list of websites, then you have to set the privacy rules on the firewall to allow Referers, you might as well set the rest to allow while you're at it. If your firewall is part of Norton Internet Security then you right click on the icon in the task bar, goto Norton Internet Security on the menu. Then in the window that opens click on Options > Internet Security. Next window click on Advanced Options. While your in the options window you might as well click the Tray Menu tab and add Advanced Options to the tray menu - it makes it easier to add sites to the list when they need special rules to allow them to work properly.
DO NOT JUST DISABLE YOUR FIREWALL!!! Thats not the solution, and if you have one you should use it, it's a very useful tool.
Anyone who has Windows XP with Norton, make sure you're XP firewall is disabled on your net connection if you're using the Norton one, other wise you won't be able to send files over MSN.

Ollie :Your firewall is blocking referers. You need to set it to allow FiestaTurbo to track the referer so it knows you came from here to view images from here. Otherwise Ade's bloody annoying pain in the arse image protection script just shows you the FT logo.
