That red x represents an image of some sort... banner ad or picture for
example that cannot be displayed for some reason.... typically a security
setting on the receiving computer, but could also be a missing or
mis-identified file on the site.  Check your settings like I advised Chris
in another message.  If that doesn't fix it, send a note to the webmaster of
the site.
