just installed "zone alarm" have you? (or any such software?) There's a neat trick they pull which disables Adverts and also anything animated and lots of Jpgs... It took me ages to find out what had happened to my system...just a thought....

i'm being a tad sneaky with the way i'm linking to my pics... putting them directly on my site was killing my bandwidth so i point them at eclectech, then eclectech redirects out to an msn group... if you copy the eclectech location into your address bar you should get the true current location and then you should be able to save ok... not totally bizarre... having the direct link to my site means if msn goes titsup i can just change the redirect to another location but the b3ta links still work... :-)

which is actually a php file that reads through a text redirect file... so if the requested url matches it sends a redirect else it sends a 404...
set up so that i can move b3ta pics around into different folders (and different web servers) without having a major link maintenance issue...
if this doesn't make sense i can send you the stuff... email me her AT the domain you would expect :-)

MSN has sneaky code that stops it if you include it in the full URL... check the MSN FAQ (I dunno where it is) and see if you can pull it out?

when i do a "save image as" in mozilla it works fine... when i do it in ie it barfs... but if you put the eclectech location in the ie address bar and let it redirect to msn you seem to be able to File... Save As... and get the pic...

Once had a hamster, his name was Bastard actually, used to piss out of his cage, lil wanka.
Anyway one day i put him in my remote control car, and nailed it round the carpark, ive not really cried so hard ever, it was the way his head would fly back everytime it accelerated. Yes i'm on the bus to hell already who cares. I reckon he enjoyed it, well he never shit himself...for once.
