Outlook 2000 attachments

[Sue]

All of a sudden, messages I receive from web sites that I
have subscribed to started coming with attachments. The
attachments are a .txt file that contains the exact same
message as the message itself. Since this only happens
in Outlook and not when I retrieve the very same messages
in my MSN account, it has to be something going on within
Outlook. I have checked all of my settings and nothing
appears to be amiss. It just started about 2 days ago
and I can't figure out why. Anyone have any ideas as to
what is going on?

If you have had Outlook open for a really long time (weeks maybe?) try
shutting it down and reopen it and see if the behavior stops. You may also
want to reboot your computer.

You got to be kidding posting this.
