The CAPCHA images don't actually exist and the file CAPTCHA_image.asp creates the images on the fly within the file.

It then sends over binary data to the web browser, but sets the content type to image so the browser knows to processes the ASP file as an image and not just display the binary data.

For some reason in your case your browser is displaying the binary data as text and not as the image.

This is very strange and could either be an issue with your browser or with the server.

Try a different browser first and see if that solves the issue, that way can tell if the issue is with your browser or with the server.

I found a fix for this.  I re-uploaded my common.asp file and voila, working now.  I found it strange that this happened as the only thing i did to the common file is add some text to the top so that it shows on every page.

Now, i got my text put in the header.asp file and it all seems to be working for now.  Question, how do you align the text centered on the page??

That will be the problem then.

By placing making the common.asp file sendout text will course issues with things like the CAPTCHA image, XML Feeds, and XSLT stylesheets, as the text will prevent the browser from selecting the correct content type for the page and it will not be processed correctly.

You could try editing the default_style.css file and changing the 'body' part
