    bing images problem on IE11


    Anyone seeing that bing images is problematic on IE11 at the mo. I do a search and see all the preview thumbnails under images section. if I click on one to blow it up and look at it closer the image is blank. anyone else see same. tried it on two pcs at home and both do the same. yet on firefox it seems fine?!!!

    Correction, our other machine isn't doing it. Just mine! If I try yahoo image search and Google image search no such issue, it's just bing and it's doing same for videos! If I log into another user account on same pc bing works normal. Odd. I tried running Internet explorer without add ons but made no difference. Also went into advanced and reset it but again no fix. It seems that bing is undefined when searching for images and vids, as if I click the blank area to go to site where a vid or i,age is hosted it comes up in address bar bing.com/undefined

    But if I go to the 'more' tab having already searched and select images under there the previews load and clicking on the pictures enlarges them just fine!!!! Weird. But then if I try another search in the box it will go back to blank images again unless I select 'more' and images from here

    Another workaround is if I pull up F12 developer tools and change the user string to internet explorer 7, 8 or 9 then bing images works like a charm. But that's not much good because I have to do that every time

    Maybe the problem is Microsoft's end but seeing as our other PC isn't having the same issues I am puzzled

    Panic seems to be over. For the benefit of others just in case this rears its head again. I was getting frustrated and then I noticed under inprivate browsing no issues with Bing. So as a last thing to try I went to safety - delete browsing history. And now problem is solved!!! So so strange though
