    Were exactly are the gif images not appearing? The box with a red dot makes it sound like inside internet explorer.

    So is this in your desktop environment or when you are online?

    Try a different browser, Firefox, Chrome, there's loads.

    I would agree with BopNiblets. Try a different browser first. I seriously doubt there is something wrong with your actual computer.

    BTW - What versions of IE, Windows and Outlook are you using. That info will help narrow down the problem in the meantime :)

    Where are these images located? Are they on your hard drive or are the on the internet? I usually see that red x when looking at images that have been hotlinked and then blocked.

    Is it possible that the gifs you are referring to were hosted on a website that has taken steps to prevent hotlinking?
