External link issues with FF7+

Hello, after updating to FF7 (and now 7.01) most external links (widgets, etc.) are not displaying. Such as the twitter and facebook widgets. They won't display. Also on twitter, the right column thumbnails of photos (twitpic, etc.) are not displaying. Is there a setting I need to activate or change? Or is this a bug in this version, as FF6 did not have this issue. Same widgets, too. Thanks!

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.

  • Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
  • Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
  • Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
  • Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).

If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Make sure that you do not block third-party images permissions.default.images

There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

Thanks for the tips, cor-el. Everything is set to allow. I'll need to tinker with extensions, etc. when I have time. Somehow this wasn't an issue in FF6, so something in FF7 is tripping up these widgets from displaying.
