Thank you, Ancient Observer, I am über-manic about history and cookies (and the Flash ones too) and, so far as is reasonably practicable, haven't had either for years. So far as missing posts are concerned, all of mine are here but I believe that at least one of Henry Crun's may be missing. Of course, he may have deleted it after I had received the advising e-mail from PPRuNe though I'm not certain that he can do that (?). Ah, thanks to Saab Dastard, I now know that he can and clearly has!
Thank you, vulcanised. I would have agreed with you completely until I followed Avtrician's advice from just above but now I am a little more perplexed but in a different way.
I didn't see why the two issues should have appeared simultaneously and not have been cured by all of the rodent changes unless it was something within my machine, especially since I have been using the same browser on the same machine with the same settings and privacy and security since before the Tay Bridge Disaster. I did change from XP to Win7 Ultimate in April but that was long before the problems cropped up. Trying IE with the result that the thumbnails appeared to work may provide a clue.
