This may be a windows issue, but maybe Firefox can help being it is hard to get windows help. I used to be able to see my pictures from the pictures library in windows. But now when I access my pictures I see only icons for those pictures. Yes, I can see the picture when I click on a given icon, but I used to be able to see all the pictures, which I have many, when I just accessed my pictures and not the icons only. I can't figure out a way to get my picture viewing back when I access my pictures from the "my computer" portal and then access my picture library. Sort of frustrating when I want to see a certain picture and all I see are icons. Can someone help? Thank you.

That would be a Windows issue not a Browser as it's not like a the Native Windows Explorer is. As you just mentioned the way you access those folder was "my computer" and this is a O/S operation not a firefox Browser issue from what I can read. You might want to post to a Windows Forum for help on Windows O/S problems.
