It seems this is the place to ask.

When I click on someone's pictures to enlarge them, actual pictures in their post, all I get is a black window with a spinning wheel. I've let them spin for quite a while and nothing ever develops.

Tips or settings I am missing?

Thanks!

Sounds like some sort of browser setting. If you use another browser do you experience the same issue?

Do you perhaps have a popup blocker? Or ad blocker or something that would manipulate the way the site loads?

This happens to me to what I do is back out of the pic then click it again. Then it will show me the pic. This only does it on FRF.

I'm using IE as my default browser and msn.com is my home page.

Using Greasemonkey51's tip, if I click "previous" about 4 times while the spinning wheel spins I will get an enlarged pic. Any pics after that will not need the "previous" work around.

When I used Google Chrome the same pics show up immediately upon the first click.

Now I know one or two work-arounds. I will add this site to the safe site list as see how it goes. I forget about that pop up blocker setting and see how it goes.

Sounds like it's the pop up blocker in IE, especially since it works flawlessly in Chrome. When you click a picture to enlarge it, you're technically popping up a larger picture. Thus, it's definitely something a popup blocker may interfere with.
