Oh joy.

My Windows 2000 dell laptop has the IE SP1 problem, but when it
breaks, it doesn't load any graphics on the entire page.
<right-click><show picture> doesn't work, and page refresh doesn't
either. I have to close and reopen the all occurrences of the browser
and then it works fine until at some point, it doesn't load any
graphics on another page.

This problem seems to almost always be a single graphic, and it has
never been all of the graphics on a page. I don't need to restart
the browser as <right-click><show picture> loads the missing graphic
and things work fine until next time.

It's the same problem?

You don't happen to have the secret combination that unlocks the
knowledge base information about this problem, do you?

Thanks,

Rick
