Hi,
I was wondering if anyone if the group could help me with a problem in am
having with outlook express.I can send and receive email without any
problems,also photos and PowerPoint slide shows.But I receive some email
that contains text which I can read but in the same email is a photo etc but
where the photo is, there is a box with a red x in it which doesn't open.I
am using XP home edition.

Thank you for your help in this matter,

Mick

Tool-Options-Security and uncheck the box "Block images and other external
content........."
Make sure you have a good, up-to-date AV program.......
