Youtube page loads but with profile pics (myself and all my subscriptions) blank
My Youtube main page does not load properly. Seems like all profile pics are not loading, inclusive channel backdrops and banners. The videos work fine though, and the screenshot of the videos are ok, just the other pictures on the site are all wonky. What gives?

some pics to help you understand my problem.
If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
- Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
- Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
- If an image in the list is grayed and "Block Images from..." has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Tried this. Still the same issue. Apparently having this problem for all browsers including chrome and ie. I've uninstalled my antivirus software (avira) and still no difference. Any ideas?
Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
