Error : (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels) - Solved

How to correct improper display of some websites :
From the last few days I was not able to open many websites (specially web-traffic analysis websites) including statcounter.com on any of my browsers. The pages were completely blank and displaying "(GIF Image, 1x1 pixels)". In case of Statcounter the home page was although displayed but everything was a complete mess, you can see the screen-shot:


So I tried to open the same websites on my laptop, which displayed all the websites properly. 

Finally when I searched for the main differences between the systems, I noticed that I recently upgraded my desktop's antivirus Kaspersky Internet Security to version 8 (2009 ).

Now it was very easy to solve this problem. I immediatley opened the application (KIS ver.8), and disabled 'Web Traffic' option under 'Anti-Malware' protection, and phew......finally I could easily access all those important websites :)

*Update: To avoid this problem in Kaspersky Internet Security (or Anti Virus) 2010 (ver. 9), disable "Anti-Banner" under "My Protection"
