Most of my friends use AOL, and recently when I get an email from them the
attached email won't open to reveal the message sent. With AOL messages, I
usually had to open several layers of forwarded messages before seeing the
first message. Now, nothing will open, help.
The message I get: The file does not have a program associated with it for
performing this actions. Create an association in the Folder Options in
control panel..... I tired, but I don't know what type of file the AOL
attach is.

And the filetype for the attachment is WHAT?

If a .msg file is attached, do you have Google Desktop installed? Any
other indexing utilities running?

I don't have Google installed. But, by accident I think my mom install IE7,
which I uninstalled, would that effect it?
