Konqueror images 'forbidden'


Fedora Core 6
Konqueror 3.5.6-0.1.fc6 Red Hat (Using KDE 3.5.6-0.3.fc6 Fedora-Core)

On some sites Konqueror (as web browser) doesn't display the site's images but displays some sort of forbidden sign: a red circle with a line through it. I have screenprints here displaying MegaUpload as example in Konqueror and Firefox (on ImageShack):

http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/2853/ffmudd5.png (407 kb)

My questions:
- Why doesn't Konqueror show these images?
- Is there a setting to change this or is there a plug-in or library missing?
- Is it a Konqueror/KDE feature or is it distro specific (or is it just me)?

Looks to me like the images are being blocked by your Konqueror adblock filters. You need to remove or modify them to allow the images you want to pass through.

In true Monty Python style, I'll kick myself.

Thank you David the H., I thought the adblock list was just a copy of the one I used with FF but there was a lot more on it.
