I've never seen this before and do not on other websites. When I click on any posted photo to enlarge, all I get is a black screen until I select go back. Photos are not opening. Windows 8 machine which did jut do a software update from MS. Ideas?

Mine does it too. I typically use firefox for my browser and it is working fine. Just happens with explorer.

Me to, I have to open in another window or open another link. What's weird is I can go to any bodies garage and the pic's come right up with no problems. I hope the site wasn't hacked.

According to Jon, it is looking like a change to IE.

Yes, it was sporadic a few months ago and now it is 100% as of 2 weeks ago, using Google Chrome or IE8 on a windows 8 OS. It is only happening on my personal computer. My work-provided laptop running on Windows7 enterprise still opens them no problem. Whatup? %) ?:?

just got a new laptop and had the problem E8 I think. My son installed an older explorer and I don't get the black screen. Sometimes they are slow to enlarge and a double click in the pic brings it full screen.

As mentioned, the problem seems to have come with IE updates. Mine just auto updated to IE11. Since I only have problems with certain sites, I've just gotten in the habit of right clicking thumbnail and hitting "open link". Tired of going in and changing computer settings.
