I run vB 2.2.9 in my forum

This hack is *absolute necessary* as inserting the attachment files in a table field it's a madness. I actually hold in my forum about 15'000 image files that occupy ~400 MB. I followed the hack procedure as indicated in post #1 and I succeded to import tons of files in my new admin/attachment directory (chmod 777).
But... I got 2 problems:
1) when I read the attachment post (showthread.php), I cannot see anymore the preview image (I get the usual IE 6.0 broken image frame) whereas I can see, once clicked, the full size image in the popup page (so the attachment link works).
I tried to force a cache refresh by ctrl+F5 with no results.
2) I don't know if it depends on 3 previous attachments hacks:
-> the private attachments in PM hack (by Chen 'FireFly' Avinadav)
-> the admin CP browsing attachments hack (by Kevin

-> the "who downloaded" hack (by Chris Bowyer)
I know that it's maybe too late to get a help, but any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
