In WM 8.5 beta all my tabs are showing, however the majority of them show as
blue question marks. They work when I click on them - but just show as "?".
Any ideas on what is causing this (signing in and out doesn't resolve it).
Thanks.

Greetings Ron,

Weird that signing out and back in didn't resolve it as it simply sounds like they couldn't
be loaded.

Which locale/country is your Windows Live ID set to?

Jonathan,

Turns out it was Webroot Spysweeper that was blocking the tabs. Set the
correct permissions and everything works fine now.

Thanks Jonathan for the reply. I did confirm my Windows Live account and it
shows US, Pacific, which is correct.
