Q: I have the strangest problem. My system, XP 1800 + nForce2 MSI MB, 512 MB, 720 Monitor Dell Ultra Scan, MSI Geforce4 MX440SE lite.
in IE when I look at a web page, photos look like theyve been heavly rasterized text is fine. Images in flash also seems to be good. So Ive narrowed it down to IE u0026 bitmaps. Another interesting side effect, one pictures that they emailed me to scan my yahoo account. The e-mail, says one of the images is “112k” but when I download is around 24k. I checked my settings in IE and do not see any settings to be this, I tried setting “smart image dithering” made no difference. At first I thought it might be * my monitor, but images are good look fine in Netscape. I use IE 6.0
don t really want to upgrade, unless they fix problem.
Worse comes to worse, Ill just update Netscape to IE 7 and closed all together:)

Re:I re-installed WinXP, same image problem. I have 1 more question, I'm using my cell phone as my modem (Sprint) could this somehow be causing pixel images to look really crappy? I am totally out of ideas, I tried different video drivers, I tried running straight VGA driver. I don't have access to any other type of internet on this pc right now. Maybe this weekend I can dig up a dial-up and see if that fixes my problem, hopefully
ANY suggestions will be good. I could even post a few pictures on a web site if that would help anyone, this problem is madness to me!

Hi,
I know you mentioned it only affects bitmaps, but I thought you *may* be wrong and that this *might* be something to do with it (long shot I know as this is probably fixed by now!)

humm thanks, didn't seem to help. Although I just installed NS 7 and the SAME thing, I swore NS 4.7 last night was showing them correctly, but it if was it's not today. UGH! Some images just look real fuzzy, some the colors are really jacked.
I'll assume it's not my monitor because things that are on my HD (images, movies) look fine.
same for the video card, which I have the latest drivers for.
I am out of ideas how to fix this, it figures I'm having far out problems like this

In IE's advanced tab in Internet Tools, uncheck "enable automatic image resizing".
The file size Yahoo displayed is probably the UUencoded or base64 encoded size rather than the file's binary size. UUE and MIME b64 are two types of encoding for which email converts a binary file into a text stream that can be sent via email. Email is only equipped to transfer text, not binary files. The encoding process often results in a text content that is considerably more bytes than the size of the original binary. However this may not be what's happening, since when I get emails with an image, it shows the binary file size. I wouldn't worry too much either way unless it's happening to such an extent that your Yahoo box is filling up faster than it should.
hummm I had tried the "resize image" button, no luck. Images look very blurry anbd pixalated. Guess I'll be going back to Netscape
