.JPG attachments

Outlook express cannot open .jpg attachments. Error
is "windows cannot find program.exe. program needed to
open this type of file" All other attachments open. I
already followed the steps to correct what SP1 changed.
If I forward .jpg e-mail attachments to my Hotmail
accout, the file will open. Must be an Outlook Express
issue.

Any ideas??

It's simply that the program defined to Windows to view .jpg files is
not there any more. Check in Explorer, Menu: Tools/Options, Tab: File
types for how you have set this up. See Help for topic "file
associations" for more information.

I can't find a help topic on associations. I also don't
find an option that allows me to view those. Sorry...I
must not be looking in the right spot.

I found what I was looking for. I simply selected the
recommended file to open those types of files and it
works now.
Thank you so much for your help.
