>Environment:
SunOS cas 5.5.1 Generic_103640-04 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-5
GCC 2.7.2
>Description:
All images will load either fully, or partialy. If the images load partialy (bottoms of the images will be cut off with a black or grey bar)
clearing the browser cache & reloading will fix the problem.

We have seen this on many versions of IE from 3.X-4.X and from Netscape 2.X-4.X for both the mac and windows platforms.

Coppying an offending image to a different file name, and then loading that file sometimes yields a good image, sometimes not.

Server has 192 meg of ram, 4 gig etc. I have 4 httpds that have 1 site each on them, and another that has aprox 55.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I can't get anyone to acknoledge the problem! =)
