What I did was to download an avatar to Shrapnel's server, entered update profile, entered the URL given me by Shrapnel's computer, pressed set URL button and then Updated Profile.

Yes, I set the URL button
No, I did not click the No Avatar button

Captain Kwok asks:

I'm not totally certain, but don't you also need to hit "Select this Avatar" for it to work as well?

Yes, I clicked "Select this avatar"

Here is what I did:

1) From the My Profile\View/Update Profile\Select a different Avatar Image, a window opens called "Intel Forums - Microsoft Internet Explorer" from which I selected a stock avatar image and saved it to my computer.
2) I ran a paint program and imported the avatar image to it.
3) I modified the avatar image and resaved it to my computer under a different name.
4) From the My Profile\View/Update Profile\Select a different Avatar Image, a window opens called "Intel Forums - Microsoft Internet Explorer" and at the bottom, I enter the path to the "modified avatar image"
5) Clicking "Set URL", causes the modified avatar image to appear in the upper left corner of the window.
6) Clicking the "Select this avatar" causes the window to close and send me back to Profile\View/Update Profile
7) Where it states "Avatar Image" (Just under the birthdate), the modified avatar image is shown.
8) I click "Update Profile" and am returned to the Intel Forums main page.
9) Going back to My Profile\View/Update Profile, shows no avatar image whatsoever.
