Dan,
I went thru this last January and it has to do with securities set up by
MS... I had a thread running here that ended up a mile long... I/we learned
that you cannot access those TIF files from Explore.. What I did find out
is that you can open IE and click TOOLS/Internet Options and on the General
tab, click on the SETTINGS button... On the new window, click on VIEW FILES
and they will all open up.. I have also found that from that window, you can
drag files out onto the desktop and copy them just as you could do with 98
or ME from Explore.... I don't know of any other way to get to them, but
this works perfectly and you can also delete them from the above window.
HTH,
