Hi I am new to The Bat,

I was trying to read an email from Youtube and I clicked the ! icon to allow images to be shown and some how instead of hitting the downward arrow to check what servers to allow I just clicked the yellow ! and now I cannot see images from youtube.


How do I fix this?

Thanks,
Chris

I reinstalled THE BAT and TB internal viewer will not show the preview image of my Youtube notifications

But, I switched to IE's viewer and I can see them just fine

Why is TB blocking the preview images?

Thanks,
Chris

The page where you set preferred viewer states that the TB! viewer is not susceptible to IE vulnerabilities. I encourage you to read more in the online help section of website to learn more of TB! features. If you do, you will see this statement:

 Internal HTML viewer ignores scripts and executable code preventing viruses and other malware from launching
 
I looked at the html source of a Youtube notification message, and noticed that the html code is covering the preview image with a transparant .png pixel stretched to the same size. When I view the message in The Bat, initially I see a solid mono-colored block where you'd expect to see the image. When I scroll the message down and back up, the filling of that block changes into colored stripes, suggesting that The Bat is having some difficulties displaying that transparent .png image. I think that's the problem here.

I've also run the Wireshark network monitor while I was viewing some Youtube notification mails in The Bat, and it looks like The Bat does retrieve the preview images (so, it's not skipping them for security/privacy reasons).

If my understanding is correct, you could file a bug report through the Support option in the menu above, and hopefully it will be fixed in a future version.
