I have a strange problem that occurs only in
IE 5.0. It doesn't happen with IE 6.0 and IE 5.5,
so I'm wondering if it's some kind of a bug in 5.0.
I could be wrong, because I tried it on only one
computer.

The problem occurs on this website - http://www.april.co.yu
When I visit the website in IE 5.0, the picture "contact" doesn't
load. But when I right click on it and select "show picture",
the picture is immediately shown.

Same thing happens on the front page of http://www.mauricius.co.yu
with one of the pictures. If the browser can show the
picture, why doesn't he show it before my right click action?

Does anyone have an idea on what's happening here?

You tried emptying your cache? I get this problem too now and then, with IE5

I need a solution from the developers point of view, not the visitors. Emptying cache solves the problem from the visitors point of view. Visitors won't know they should empty the cache in order to load all of the pictures from my web site.

When images start to disappear all over the web I expect they will be motivated to find out.

I found out the solution to my problem. I did a little diging
on Microsofts web site and I found out that the problem is
in the Encoding option in the View menu. It should be set
to Auto-Select. That solved the problem and all the pictures
now load perfectly.
