I have not tried in any browser yet, but saw that someone else had tried Firefox. They had the same outcome. I am using Chrome.
I am also having the same problem. No images on yahoo.com. It is not working in Firefox or IE either. I have also tried the recommended fixes. Still doesn't work. I have even moved my computer out of the house and tried a different connection. I have another computer that has not had the Microsoft update applied and Yahoo.com is working correctly.
I guess it's a bit reassuring that it's not only me? I had issues with the images again this morning before work, but now that I've just gotten home they're all there again. It's so strange........
Any other suggestions, GhostLoad, to help me?
After several Google searches, I finally found a forum that explains the issue I'm having...
I use Firefox. A Firefox refresh fixed the problem for a few minutes and then it went back to blank pics. Currently, the big selected news story picture is showing but the five 'preview' pictures are not. The pictures below when you scroll down are hit and miss.
This problem started after an automatic installation of 17 updates for Windows 7.

Wish I knew how to help, I woke up this morning and no images once again. Uuuugggghhhhh
I noticed that mine went blank after the large updates as well. Would it be safe to uninstall them? Anyone have some input here?
OK. I did a System Restore to a safe date; backed up my Bookmarks that would otherwise disappear. After it ran, it said it did not complete successfully. Ran it again; same results.
So, I took a chance and rebooted the system alone and brought up Yahoo. Bing! My images are back, at least for now. We will see what happens through the rest of the day and tomorrow.
I fixed my problem. I called tech support for a website I use for my business. They have had a lot of calls regarding some pictures missing on yahoo.com. He asked me if I have Avast anti-virus installed on my computer--and I do. I fixed my problem with the website I use for my biz and also fixed yahoo.com. I have another computer that doesn't have Avast installed and I have installed the Microsoft updates--yahoo.com works fine on that computer.
This is what he told me to do:
Open up Avast
Go to Settings
Click Active Protection
Click on Customize next to Web Shield
Uncheck - Enable HTTPS Scanning
I don't know if this is the problem with others that have posted.
I went ahead and customized my Avast, just in case. We'll see in the morning. Seashell2015, can you keep us updated to see if this still works tomorrow? Thanks!
Hmm I also use Avast! and I'll try the things that the tech support rep suggested to you. I'll report back in a day or so and keep an eye on the site (since, for me at least, it fluctuates between showing images and them being missing).
Joe,
You could be right! Though I had already uninstalled all the updates prior to fixing the Avast problem, my images have stayed since last night.
Thanks for all the help everyone!
