New DSL , can't see Ads, get "page cannot be displ

[eric0668]

I just got DSL a few days ago from ATT. I think everything is hooked up ok. I am using it and it is browsing fine..so to speak. I can download and upload fast. Actually, that is where there is the biggest difference, it actually doesn't browse much faster than a good dial up with an accelerator.

But the problem is I cannot get some graphics. like the Yahoo on the top of Yahoo's page. I just get the letters typed...Yahoo. No graphics. Also, a lot of ads are missing. In other places, about an inch over the page sporadically I get page cannot be displayed.

I am getting very upset with ATT. they said everything is ok on their end cause they did all those PING tests. Now they said they will send someone out to look at it and charge me??

Any ideas. I think I may just pay the extra 10 or 20 $ and go with cable and save the money by getting rid of my home phone and only having the cell. Nonetheless, I'd still like to know what could be the problem

Kevin at KRC said it could've been my IE spyad, but I told him I've had that installed and it worked fine with dial up

Take a look at your HOSTS file - looks like you've been ad-blocking.

Or maybe ATT is doing it (that looks unlikely though).
