Red X appears instead of image?

THANK YOU! You fixed my dredded red-box problem with the HTML setting!

What do I do? I'm getting the red X and it is driving me crazy. How can I get rid of it. I just pictures to appear without having to add an addtional step!

i have read all 47 comments and none of them is my situation. Can you help me with my problem?

MY PROBLEM: its a long story, so ill skip that, but heres a summary, i found old messages with pictures that ive written to a friend, over myspace, of me and my ex, and i wanted to save the pics but there is a red x on them. when i right click and click on show picture it doesnt show me, what should i do? i really want those pictures =/ can i get some help?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Sounds like those pics were deleted from the website where they once lived. In that case, you won't be able to view them. One possibility: Use archive.org to see if a cached copy exists.

Dreaded Red X problem: I did all that you said to do and I still have the following problem. I am a profesor who teaches online classes using WebCT, a common"learning platform." Getting test questions loaded onto the platform isn't easy, so there is another program called Respondus that will take RTF files and image files that are done a certain way, and upload them as tests for you. Unfortunately, many of my students are saying that they are getting the dreaded red x and after I referred them to this page, many are STILL getting it. Is there anything else it could be?

EDITOR'S NOTE: So, some do and some don't -- while viewing the same content? That tells me something on the client side is causing the problem. A firewall, anti-malware or overly restrictive browser setting is most likely. Ask them to try another browser (which they have not yet messed up!).

I have a piczo site from a couple of years ago and i just found it. It still the same except all my photos have red x's and i can't view them. what should i do??

EDITOR'S NOTE: Most likely your photos have been removed because the account was dormant. Probably nothing you can do...

Sometimes the images in Outlook are corrupted (the cached) and you can delete/flush all files in this folder %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKxxxxx\ and then restart Outlook and it will work.

I don't understand why my website, my pictures on my website, and my video work when i pull them up in Internet explorer and Firefox, but when I send my files as an attachment to my school my professor says my menu links and my photos don't show, the pictures have red X's and the menu links don't work when clicked, but my video shows.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Did you tell your prof to read "Red X appears instead of image?"

I did the Regedit and removed the temp as shown by John Bryntze comments. I checked to allow pictures to show automatically and I checked in IE advance, multimedia to allow pictures..Still has red X on one of our computers.

The solution posted by John solved my problem.

I have a similar problem but mine is not with e-mail / web. I own a copy of PaperPort Professional 11. Every time I load it a "How to" box appears om screen. Whenever I try to view the items within this section I can read the words but all the pictures are replaced by the dreaded Red X. Nuance have been unable to rectify this. Can you please off some hope? I run Vista Home Premium (with SP1) and Kaspersky Internet Security. The latter was turned off during the installation of Paperport.
