I think I found a way around this without having to change settings in each person's browser that uses Norton. Yeah right.

Apparrently they block certain sized images, such as 125x125 pixels, which is a standard ad format.

I resized the thumbnails to odd sizes, like 126 pixels in width and the images are showing up in all of the areas where they were missing.

Time for sleep.

Now that is DUMB. I guest they are trying to do what customers are asking. But is is like getting TV but with commecial grayed out....

Some sites rely on ADS to support there "FREE" or close to free or low cost offerings. Even I click on a few here or there. With out these ads on most sites - many would have to become "pay for service/product" or go under/close shop..... I am sure OSCdox.com would become just that without ADS and support from AABOX...!

Note to Norton: Please block popup (Which I HATE alot) - but not on page ADS/BANNERS....


Also to note: some time when you upload PICS/changes - it may be cached locally (IE is very bad at doing this - clear out your file cache- it may help) ASWELL your ISP and/or your HOST may also have a HARDWARE cache system in place (to reduce there required bandwidth/server load) Hitting refresh may or may not fix this. If not then the ONLY solution is to wait for a short while and retry (typically 5 or 10 or so mins - don't keep on refreshing as this just keeps it in the cache longer....).
