[LON-CAPA-users] Can't display images

OK,

I've gotten a bit more info on this.  After one of the students disabled his 
Norton firewall, he could see the images.  This triggered a memory about 
graphics and port 8080.  Does LON-CAPA still use this port for some graphics?  
Could that be this student's problem?

Thanks,

Todd
