Fx 31 for Mac suddenly stopped loading images does anyone have a solution to this.
In the middle of the day Fx stopped loading images for buttons, pictures on websites etc. I can use other browsers on my Mac and they work fine. I have reset Fx and tried with no add-ons installed. I have even removed and reinstalled. No change.

You would need to make the change on the about:config page to the permissions.default.image pref and set its value to 2 to block images by default.

Thanks Brandon. The default had reverted to 2. Switching it back to 1 fixed the problem. Of course that raises the question about how it got changed in the first place but that's a subject for another time.
You have the QuickJava 2.0.4 extension installed and this extension allows to toggle the image setting as well.
