When I post an image and I have comments on that image I can not see the comments until I leave a comment after it. Does anybody have an ideas whats going on here ?

Maybe it's just me, but I don't believe I understand what you're asking. Could you ask you question a different way, or maybe give a specific example?

Confused ? Right I'll try again... Every time a post a new thread and somebody comments on it I can see who made the comment but not what they have commented until I post a reply.

That's bizarre! I have not had that problem at all.

What browser are you using, and are you using any special add-ons (such as ad blockers) for it?

Internet explorer is riddled with issues and quirks. Try Firefox by Mozilla, it provides a more sound internet experience and added security.

As much as I like Firefox and wish more people would use it switching browsers is not the solution to every internet problem, even if it does fix the problem. There are any number of reasons why this would be happening. But we can't just tell people to switch browsers because this (or any site) isn't working correctly. That's like telling someone to switch to Mac or Linux because their Windows machine is full of viri.

Internet explorer lacks both stability and security, switching to FF may not solve every problem, but overall I believe it would eliminate most of the issues people find on this site and many others. Its not a very drastic thing to change, all of your bookmarks, passwords, and history can be imported during the installation. The internet still looks the same either way, why not use the best browser out there.

Because people pick their browser for a reason. I use Firefox mostly and have Chrome, Opera, K-meleon, and Safari installed. Once Netflix got their instant viewing working with Firefox I stopped using IE altogether.

Back to the original problem though. Have you tried cleaning your computer any virus or anything else malicious that might be there? I use CCleaner, Ad-Aware, and Spybot Search & Destroy (all free). Try running those programs and see what happens.
