Again, Sam, have you done an fsck -y and reset the open firmware?

Firmware: Boot up and hold Apple -- Option -- O -- F and type in
reset-all

fsck -y: Boot up and hold down Apple -- S. Type in fsck -y
If any problems are found, run it again, until there are no errors. Then hit Control -- D to boot up

If the problem still exists, grab Norton Systemworks 2.0 and run Antivirus, Disk Doctor, Utilities. See if that helps. Then run the fsck -y and reset the open firmware again.

If that doesn't work, and neither does anyone's advice, post your question here. (http://www.thetechpub.com/) You may have to register, if you have not done so already. Also, a reply may take a while, since the site isn't as popular as this.

Then it's a problem with your browser/setup or something... and not a MacRumor specific problem. It's either vBulletin or your setup.

Since vbulletin is pretty popular, I'd lean more to a problem on your side.

Got it.:)
The problem was it was a TIFF file, renamed as a JPG, I think, though I mught be wrong. MR only supports certain types of files.
