Applets

Hi All
I have just downloaded all the M$ updates as well as Java from Sun microsystems. After my recent updates i find myself unable to view web pages wit pictures, i instead have the applets with a box. When i right click and select show picture i am only then presented with the picture.
I reset my internet options to default on the advanced tab but i am still unable to view most pictures on most sites.( Not Web-user though......Seems fine)
Thanks, Stuarty

Have a read of M$KB 283807 Pictures Are Not Displayed on Web Sites in Internet Explorer
Please post your query to the boards as many hands make light work, and I'm not talking electricians! If your problem is solved, let us know so that others can learn.

Hi
Thanks for the prompt reply to my post puta. I read your link to the M$ KB and went through the steps individually untill i exhausted all options.
I thought that the problem was occuring from the Encoding and tried different variations untill i managed to get a stable one with Central European ( Windows ), but for some reason it always changed to Unicode ( UTF-8 ).
To put things worse my Broadband connection slowed to a standard Dial-up service which was getting anoying.
I always download the latest updates from M$ to keep my system safe and over the past couple of days i have downloaded about 40 Updates. I never had any problems before the updates so i restored my system to the day before the updates and hey presto Everything is back to normal, if not better. Problem solved! ( Well If or When i D/L the rest of the updates anyway )
From anyones experience is it better just to download the Critical Updates and leave the others as i only seem to get problems when i update my system from M$
Would like to hear views on this subject from more experienced users as i am reluctant to update the Non-Critical updates.
Thanks, Stuarty

personally i only d/load the critical updates, and look through the rest and only d/load any i think directly affect any programs or processes that i use. for instance anything to do with networking i don't bother with. mine is a standalone computer. as long as you get the critical ones.
