I'm sure you are happy with it, but it's insecure, and it won't work
forever.

properly. Here are the screenshots as an example of one page in

Try right-clicking on one of the broken images, then click "open image
in new tab", and switch to the new tab, and see if there is any error.
I note that the JPEGs seem to be broken whereas the PNGs seem to work.
I would be surprised if that's our fault. Maybe your libjpeg is
corrupted due to it being on a very old hard drive. You could try
reinstalling Windows.
Was a coding algorithm at Wikipedia changed or support for older
browsers disabled? According to this
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Compatibility_browser) my
browser is still supported. If it has been caused by mistake, then
could you please turn it back on?
No, I don't think so, although dropping grade C support for your
browser has recently been discussed at
