Iceweasel not displaying Yahoo mail images

Tags:

I use an AMD64 computer with up-to-date Debian unstable, 1386 port. I
use the old Yahoo email interface.

I use Yahoo email to read messages sent from Yahoo groups. The messages
often contain thumbnail images and links. Recently Iceweasel (aka
Firefox) has not been displaying these images and links. Konqueror works
OK. Anyone know what the problem is?

only because I was just reading the user-agent string thread, is it
possibly the user-agent string?

search the archives on "iceweasel user-agent string" or go to
about:config search for agent and change the user agent string
s/iceweasel/firefox and see what happens. If it doesn't work, then
change it back or not as you see fit.

I Googled on "iceweasel user-agent string". I followed a suggestion at
"http://www.debianhelp.org/node/3595": go to the url about:config and
change general/useragent.extra.firefox to "Firefox/2.0". My problem did
not go away.

Does this happen even when you disable all extensions and run in safe mode?
Firefox extension like adblock can block images, flash, frames etc., There is
also a possibility that one of the extensions you are using is broken...
