Gog..That was the very first thing I tried...
Thanks all for your suggestions. We got it fixed but have no idea what was causing it to happen. We reset all the security,privacy, etc back to default states,did a deep scan of all drives, used registry mechanic to clean up useless/duped files etc. We(my son-in-law, while I watched:)) just did a major overhaul of everything and VIOLA! it is fixed. I can see pictures. I was up til 3 am just wandering through the galleries. what lovely work there is all around.
Yahoo! I can view my favorite artists again!!!
