Here are numerous things that can cause that problem depending on your operating system. There are also numerous discussions about it at CNET. Rather than start yet another one this link is for one of the longer ones. You should be able to find an answer there. Good Luck

Occasionally, on a web page, I see a one inch square box with a smaller square box within it and a red "x" in the smaller one.
I assume this represents some sort of photo, artwork, etc. and there is a setting on my computer that can view it.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
