Computer Settings

Hi. Can anyone help. For some reason when I visit some sites, they won't show. Also some ads or i.e. banners / google ads don't show on my computer. I am really confused. I don't know what the settings of my computer are, but this is really weird. If I go on a different computer, I see all the things fine that I can't see on my computer. Here is an example: When I got ads from CJ .com, and I put them on my site, and I publish the site. I can't see the ads on my computer. Also when I visited some other ad networks, their sites just comes up as an image or sort of. it's reads on the top: i.e. direc.php (GIF image, 1x1 pixels). Don't have any clue on how to fix this. Please help.

Thanx

 

I am using firefox right now. I don't even have norton. hmm strange. I also have used different browsers but only firefox and internet exp.

 

You are not by any chance using an Internet service that would block ads are you? I can see this happening if you are using public wifi or something along those lines if a filter is in place. It is strange that it does it in both IE and FireFox, so it might not be a browser setting.

 

tools > options/preferences > security level
change to low

if you have windows firewall enable, go to there via start > contorl panel > windows firewall
open and edit if neccessary

 

okay, I noticed something just now. When i visit a site, that has both secure and non secure settings, i test this and noticed that the non secure doesn't show while the secure one shows. I.e. i went to cj .com - http : // cj .com, and i could only see the words not the images and other things such as the flash text. then i went to https : // cj .com and it works fine. everything comes out and i can browse through the site fine. but the non secure one doesn't show anything, nor does the link. when i click on the click only a blank page comes up.

 

thanks. it seems that you were right about the anti virus. i currently use kasper sky. and i turned it off, and went online, and then i went to a few sites that was being block and it works fine.
