Very frustrating to always have to allow the images or disallow.

something changed after a recent windows update , i did have to reset the time and date , which are now correct , the firewall is turned on at the network connections/windows firewall setting , i was running avg for a long time but upgraded and something went wrong so i deleted and i tried to reinstall but couldn't about a month ago , this is for xp windows for windows 7 i think , this is more than just "some parts are not secure" every site has a certificate security warning , now the other thing is i can't just log out of hotmail , it takes me to a promt , asking if i am done ?

Please note i have spent decent money on norton antivirus in the past , problem was it took nearly 15 minutes to check everything when i turned on the computer , that's why i went to avg because it was less drama and had always worked in the past , i did install avast yesterday but it didn't do the job ? so as i write this i have pc tools spyware doctor running a scan and i will see if it heals the problem , pain in the rear ! please note even when i swapped over to firefox i still had hassles

Do a system restore to a point prior to those updates and see if that fixes the issues.

Then be more selective with your windows updates.

i have done system restore in the past and it helped , so good suggestion , the updates are automatic at the moment

try system restore, and turn off auto updates. If that gets you going again, keep your updates manual.

Just remember to do them, and be selective.

You can adjust setting but that isn't going to help you for the current issue.
