Need help with an IE 4.0 setting

Sapphire Nights · 21st Nov 2001, 05:06 PM

I am helping my parents get on the internet. They got an old computer for free and the IE settings are a bit messed up.

When I bring up any web page the background does not display. Is there a setting in IE that prevents backgrounds from downloading with the rest of the page?

Did you try to go into all the internet options and reset to default?

... and no one recommended upgrading to IE6? It's not a very big download, and makes IE ... umm, a bit more bearable. Or stick Mozilla on there.
