My first experience with SBC Yahoo Live Tech Support Chat:

Yana: Hello j.starks, How can we assist you today?
j.starks: I just got SBC Yahoo DSL. Since I installed the SBC Yahoo software, most internet sites only display red Xs instead of pictures.
Yana: Okay.
j.starks: I've reinstalled Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0, updated my video card drivers, and made sure I had "show images" enabled in IE's options.
Yana: Please let me know, the browser you are using to visit different web sites. (Internet Explorer, Netscape, or SBC Yahoo! Browser).
j.starks: Internet Explorer 6.0.
Yana: Okay.
Yana: I appreciate your knowledge and effort.
Yana: I apologize for the inconvenience this is causing.


(long pause)

j.starks: Are you a bot or a real person?
Yana: Like you.
Yana: I am real person.

j.starks: Heh. Good.
Yana: I suggest that you delete the files and Cookies.
Yana: You may experience this issue, due temporary Internet files and Cookies that gets accumulated with your browser.

j.starks: I've cleared my cache, deleted all temporary internet files and deleted my cookies. I have also run a ScanDisk and defragmented my drive. Then I re-downloaded and reinstalled IE 6 from Microsoft.
j.starks: Any other suggestions?
