    Hey....How are you?

    I am having problems opening JPG images in my Outlook 2003....this is a recent development...it use to open everything with no problem....can you tell me what I need to do to correct this problem? I have looked at every website I could find on the web and tried several suggestions, however, nothing worked.
    Do I need to download a program to fix this????
    I will be patiently waiting for any direction you can provide.....

    Thanks for your time and consideration....

    Kindest regards...

    Welcome to MG :)

    Windows update KB945432 can cause this problem. Go to Add/Remove programs (check the box show updates), find KB945432, uninstall, this should resolve the problem.

    In addition...to Buggabear!!! There is no error message...a box opens with black text such as 000000000000....

    Crazy, huh?
    Other computer pros have suggested that I have to download some other kind of program....what do you think?

    Dear Ratz....

    In answer to your question about the ability to open JPG outside of Outlook 2003.....
    the answer is "no", we always have to try and find a different program to open them, after we have saved them!!! Any ideas???
