Image Hosting Problems

Hi,

I have had problems for a couple of years in downloading images from certain image hosting site. When I visit forums and click on threads that have images attached, I cannot download that image. The thumbnail shows up fine but I when I try and open the image it just times out and will not open. The image hosting I have problems with are ImageBam, Imagevenue & Postimage. I have checked with several forums and no-one else seems to be having this problem.

I did have a slightly old computer so put it down to an issue with my PC, but I have just bought a new computer and the first thing I did was try to download these images but with the same result.( I, of course transferred Norton from my old computer to my new computer with the latest Norton Antivirus before I went on the internet). This narrows down the problem to either my ISP or my Norton Antivirus. I have been in touch with my ISP and there is no problem there, which leaves Norton Antivirus as the only possible culprit.

I use these file hosting sites for my work and from my clients so I need to access them. I do not want to cancel my Norton subscription but I am running out of ideas and it is getting really frustrating.

Please can you offer a solution to my problem.

Thanking you in advance!
