Are you using slipstream compression on a dialup?

In internet Explorer go to tools, internet options,advanced, and scroll
down do the Multimedia section and make sure the tick box that says
"Enable automatic image resizing" is not ticked.

3X faster surfing perhaps from your ISP. :-)
You didn't bother trying it did you?

1. Check for adware/trojans/viruses. Use Ad-aware and spybot search and
destroy. Be careful to get the real ones as there are some scam sites out
there. Keep them up to date.

2. Some internet accelerator software achieves it's speed by re-compressing
the pictures with a low quality setting before sending them to you.

3. IE will automatically scale large pictures to fit inside your window. If
the mouse point is left over the picture for a few seconds a expansion
button appears in the bottom right corner. Click it.

4. Some filtering/censoring software may blur pictures. Maybe it's being
over zealous IF on your machine at all.

5. Maybe be a corrupted IE update from MS, or corrupted setting. Common.
Fix = reinstall windows.

I'm betting it's some spyware/trojan vandalism.
