For over a week now, when I search for a word at Google, it correctly gives me some preview image thumbnails:
But when I click on "images", it doesn't show me any thumbnails:
The same thing happens at Bing.com, when I search Bing itself it gives me some thumbnails on the general search result page:
But when I click on "images", it doesn't show me any thumbnails:
The same thing happens at Yahoo:
If I click on one of the broken thumbnails, it shows me the picture fine:
Thumbnails at youtube also work fine:
It seems each search engine is hanging on different URLs as shown above:
- t1.gstatic.com
- ts3.mm.bing.net
- thm-a02.yimg.com
so it doesn't seem to be the problem of one specific URL not sending thumbnails, it is just a problem with search engine image thumbnails in general.
Also, this happens in every browser I try: Explorer, Firefox, Chrome.
What could be the problem? Is it my computer, some setting somewhere, my router, my Internet provider (T-Online, Germany)? Has anyone ever had this problem and solved it?
