Xoops is mulfuntioning, depending on where you live?

OKay. I'm having some trouble.
I don't know what's going on. But my site looks differently depending where you are.
My site is currantly at: Symbiotic Online.
To people, it loads, you can see nice graphics, and everything is fine.

But to some other people, it looks like this:
Resized Image
I've checked their browsers, they are all above I.E5.5.
One user was running it fine, the next day, the site had broken images, and things were'nt loading.

Some get 404 errors, that files don't exisit, but they do! =X
I was online when this happened, someone got a 404, and I was viewing the same file!

I can run it now, and refresh, clear canche, others, can't do anything. It won't let users register on some.
Majority of this is happening for people in the US.

Someone help please!
What on earth is going on?!

By the way, I have HotLink enabled. This feature prevents anyone outside from stealing images, and linking images from their site.

Could this be the problem?

If a user's browser or firewall is blocking the HTTP_REFERER header from being sent, your "HotLink" protection might prevent the images from being downloaded. I just tested that myself; if I block HTTP_REFERER (using Proxomitron), the images on your site don't show up.

Also, XOOPS itself may not work properly if HTTP_REFERER is being blocked.

My Browser Check script was designed to help diagnose that problem, among other things.
