IMDB.com only loads as text. How can I fix this?

For some reason when I load IMDB.com it shows up as only text. No images. No other website does this. I have deleted history, checked under 'permissions' to make sure images were 'allowed' and selected 'no proxy'.

Out of curiosity, do you use Rogers as your ISP? It seems that their DNS servers have problems resolving the content IMDB's servers host. You could try switching to Google Public DNS. I haven't done this yet myself, but I hear it not only fixes IMDB, but also improves a lot of browsing speed in general (Rogers supposedly not having very good DNS servers). You can find info about how to do this at http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ .
