I obviously don't want to be surfing with the firewall disabled so can any of you computer experts suggest which of ZA's many settings may be responsible?
In the two examples you chose, Dave's image is hosted by gt40s.com, Lynn's image is hosted by ebay.com. So it might be that ZoneAlarm is blocking images that are not coming from the site that the webpage is hosted on (gt40s.com). Take a look at the settings and see if there's one that says "block images from 3rd party web sites" (or something like that). (I don't use ZoneAlarm, so I can't say what specifically to look for)
