windows 7 getting red x on script

Sep 22, 2010 9:16AM PDT

I'm currently running windows 7 on my laptop. I use the random image script from cgispy as my signature on some message boards that I frequent. Everything worked fine when I first got my laptop but one day I quit seeing the images and got the red x instead, when I right click and click show picture it just reloads the red X...I thought the cgispy site was down and didn't think much about it. Months later, I still can't get it to work on my laptop....but all other images show up fine. My desktop is running Windows XP and can see the cgispy images fine. I thought a setting in IE got changed but they match what it on my desktop. I've deleted all cookies, temp files, and browsing history and have done every troubleshoot I could find but nothing has helped. The only thing I can think of is if something got changed in an automatic update to cause it to quit working. Then I started using firefox on my laptop and I'm having the same problem with it as well. Flash and Java both are current. Both computers are using Trend and have the same settings. I'm thinking of trying to uninstall and reinstall flash but don't know if there is maybe something else to try before that?
I am running Windows 7 With IE8 & Trend.
