Charlie, maybe the reason you're still getting the nasty picture is that, having gotten it once, it's stored as a temporary file in your computer. I know that my computer (HP laptop with Windows XP) will automatically store a copy of practically every web page I visit, so that if I visit the page again, it doesn't have to download it again. To save time, it simply pops up the temporary file that it stored previously.

Every couple of days, I clean out cookies I don't want and dump temporary files. Frees up space on my hard disk and even though reloading a particular web page may take a couple seconds longer, it loads a new copy, not the older temporary file. Also, my computer runs faster in general without all the extraneous temporary internet files.

One way to dump temporary internet files (if you're using Windows Interned Explorer) is to click on "Tools," then, on the pull-down menu, click on "Delete Browsing History."

No guarantees, but that may get rid of it.

P. S. Here we go!

Go to http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/tarzan/images/

That will take you to "Index of/tarzan/images." Then, scroll down about thirty-some lines to "Dh04v4.jpg" and click on it. That should take you to the picture (Tarzan and the lion) I was trying to post.
