OE 6 / XP error message

When I have an email, with filename.jpg picture attachment(s). On the header bar of
the email there is a paperclip(right side). If I click the paperclip, and then click
filename.jpg, I get this error message:
Windows cannot find "C:\Documents and Settings\My Username\Local
Settings\Content.IE5\C123WTYJ\Filename.jpg". Make sure you typed the name correctly,
and then try again. To search for the file..blah blah blah.

(meannwhile, the jpg file is displayed properly by Windows Picture and Fax viewer.)
This can also occur if I am forwarding an email, and want to review the jpg's that
are attached.

My OE dbx files are in :
"C:\Windows\Application Data\Identities\{2CBA4ZE0-8B70..... .......
...}\Microsoft\Outlook Express"
OE ver 6.00.2800.1123
What do I need to adjust, tweak..ect, to stop getting this error message ?
Thank you in advance.

Here is the fix I came up with:
If jpg/jpeg are associated with Windows Picture and Fax viewer, I have the problem.
No problem if I associate jpg/jpeg's with IE.
I obtained & installed a program "IrFanView", and have jpg/jpeg associated with it.
case closed.
