Icons in Yahoo Mail Missing

Admitedly, I'm a IE newbie having spent most of my browsing life using
Netscape and FF. Therefore, the questions I post may appear too simplistic to
even answer but I ask them only after an ernest attempt to find the answer
myself. Having said that:

When I go to yahoo.com for my mail all the icons that display properly in FF
show as empty white boxes in IE?

Using any ad-blocking software?
Anything for Yahoo listed in your hosts file?
What sites, if any, are listed under the Restricted Sites security zone?

Hi:

Using any ad-blocking software? No. I have Norton 360 but it does not
prevent popups.

Anything for Yahoo listed in your hosts file? No. The hosts file contains 2
localhost entries: 127.0.0.1 & ::1

What sites, if any, are listed under the Restricted Sites security zone? None.

So what happens when you disable everything Norton?
