Possibly they're cached (saved) on your PC but not on the laptop.

Is it just one site that loads slowly or any that has lots of pictures?
If its just one, what's the address?
To check and change the cache size in Internet Explorer go to 'Tools - Internet Options...' click the 'General' tab and then the 'Settings' button in the 'Tempory Internet files' section of the window. This will show the size of the cache. If you've got enough disk space try increasing it.

Sorry scottie my last post was about another problem i still have but to the one i was talking about the gif's on the websites loading slowly i increased it to the same as my pc but still the same as before but i will increase it more to see if that helps at all .
And now to the problem i was talking about in my last post at 12:08 was about when i go onto ebay and there is some more photos at the bottom of the page of a seller i can't see them but can on my pc upstairs and i just can't find why i can't see them.

If you are on xp do a diskclean...this only takes a few mins but will clear all the clutter on your machine including temp files and you will notice a slight speed increase and should be able to view your pics then, I normally clear mine out everyday from the tools>internet options>delete files (make sure u tick the box as well) I do the diskclean once a month.

Regards........Mark
