I'm not sure the server is preventing anything. Maybe your ISP or browser is blocking the images. I'm using Chrome with the default security settings.

*** EDIT ***

Sometimes, some pictures show, as KK says, busted. What I do is right-click on the busted square, then select "Copy image URL" option, open another browser tab, paste the image's URL, and press return (enter). If the image shows in the new tab, then I go to the old tab and reload the page (right-click, "Reload" option). Most of the time the previously busted image shows now fine.

I'm not sure why this works with me. I can guess that maybe there is a shorter time-out if the image is hot-linked, but I don't know.
