I am unable to see some pictures sent in emails. I see a block of white with
a small icon in the upper left hand corner containg a red X. What do I need
to download to see the pix?

Tammi and ruti,

I am going to assume you are both using Outlook Express as your email
clients. Open Outlook Express, go to the "Tools" menu, select Options then
the Security tab. Uncheck "Block images and other external content..."

Now I must warn you both, if you turn off Block images then Outlook Express
will not protect you from malware and web beacons.

For more information please read the following KB article.

Thanks for the info, William!

William, I tried unchecking and applying "Block images etc." I still cannot
see the pic and when I try to send to myself, I get a message that one or
more images could not be found and would not be included and then it asks if
I still want to send??

I would suggest to visit the Outlook Express newsgroup. The people there
will most likely resolve your problem.
