    For some reason, for about, I dunno, a year or so, McAfee blocks out my pictures with it's logo. TF2 Pictures: Blocked. BB Pictures: Blocked. Wikipedia Pictures: Blocked. It seems totally random which ones it picks, most of the time it blocks out some, but not others, and it's probably the most stupid thing I've seen. It blocks out random pictures, and not porn. Basically, to sum it all up: If there was a picture of a baby next to porn, it would block out the baby.

    I've searched it up before, and the answer I got was:
    The main problem being, I don't have a Image Analysis setting. I'm also an "Administrator" on McAfee, so it should be able to be changed.

    Any help would be much appreciated, it's really annoying.

    I know, but until that time, anyone know a fix?

    BTW: Teddi, you were saying something about Nod32, does that have one time fees, or do you have to renew it?

    Go check there, renewing costs alot less than having to buy it all over again, and they're cheap for multiple computers.
