Has it always been this way or did it just start?

You didn't mention any kind of malware protection. If the system is not clean all bets are off.

If everything is fine try this;
 
1. Start  
2. Settings  
3. Control Panel  
4. Internet Options  
5. Security tab  
6. Reset all 4 security zones to Default  
  
1. Start  
2. Settings  
3. Control Panel  
4. Internet Options  
5. Privacy  
6. Restore 1 Default button  
  
1. Start  
2. Settings  
3. Control Panel  
4. Internet Options  
5. Advanced  
6. Restore 1 Default button  
  
You may need to do the following as well  
    
1. Start  
2. Settings  
3. Control Panel  
4. Internet Options  
5. General tab  
6. Remove cookies, temporary files and history

What browser are you using?  Have you tweaked the settings to prevent the display of images?

Twister:

My guess is you have to enable HTML graphics.  If you are viewing e-mail with graphics, for example, you may see an option to enable graphics when you are viewing your e-mail with your Web browser.
