On a web page, many of the images are no longer displayed (blank space). Also, if I go to the URL of a specific image example, the image will display properly in IE but not in FF. In FF, I get gobbledygook example . Lastly, it appears that the little icons or avatars that appear next to a URL in the Navigation area no longer appear on my Bookmarks Toolbar example. Do I have a missing or malfunctioning plugin or addon?

Many TIA

Thanks for the reply, edmeister. I tried the things that were listed in the article but, unfortunately, with no success.

You get images displayed this way as text if they are received by Firefox a content type text/plain
It is possible that security software (firewall) is modifying the HTTP response headers to cause that to happen, so if the settings in Firefox are correct then check the advanced settings for Firefox in your security software.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

  • "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
  • "Remove the Cookies" from sites causing problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
