Is this a setting problem? I am running Windows XP with service pack. The pages load okay, but I do not get any background images. I have a dial-up ISP and everything shows up fine on that ISP.
Why can I not get AT&T Yahoo dsl to show up the background images? Their self support help said it is my computer. If so, why do the images show up on the dial-up?
Please help as to what could be the problem and how I can fix it.
Thanks!

I have dialup internet at home. It starts off fine, but then after 5 minutes, it slows right down until it eventually freezes up. What is strange is that if I download something in the background (spybot or AVG updates), the interent connection will work fine until the download is completed. Then it will slow down until it freezes. The longest I can surf the internet at one time is about 10 minutes. I have Windows XP with a newer modem. I have tried both IE and FireFox and it happens on both. Any Suggestions???
Thanks alot (this has been driving me crazy)
When it slows down until it freezes, I cannot close out of anything. Everything on the PC is locked up. I have to hold in the power button to re-start the computer.

First, a little background info.
My o/s is win98se. (I know, I know, so don’t go there, ok?)
I have IE6(all updates), and Firefox 2.0.0.4. The phone co. in my area doesn’t offer yahoo dsl, so I’m back to being tortured by a 56.6k V92 dial up modem. I like Firefox, but it runs too slow on my dialup…………
About the firewall…..
For a couple of years, I used Sygate pf (latest freeware version), with no problems at all. but recently I started experiencing BSOD’s and lockup. When this happened, the Raw log would have numerous entries of…”Logon impersonator-wrong OS”, and “system configuration has been changed”. Reinstalling didn’t solve the problem. I even tried downloading the setup from a different site, no help.
Now I’m using Kerio PF(version 2.1.5), and so far–so good. But these “attacks” slow my pageloads drastically, and I”m concerned. I have Norton a/v (up-to date), and ran Panda Activescan (both negative).
wudaya tnk….??rootkit?? Any suggestions? I’m all ears.
