Try the tip found here:
http://www.mozilla.org/start/1.0/faq/browser.html#2.10
If that doesn't help do the following:
Edit -> Preferences -> Images -> "Do Not Load Any Images"
Both of the above should work in Mozilla 1.0.1. If fact, I just tried
editting the preferences in my Moz 1.0.1 and it worked.
