PROBLEMS WITH ATTACHING WORD DOCUMENTS TO EMAIL!!!

[Guest]

About a week ago, I was unable to attach any Word files to my emails, whether
from my MSN Hotmail account, my Yahoo! account, or any other of my email
accounts. For Hotmail, it would continue "attaching files" until the page
went to a "The page cannot be displayed" page. For Yahoo! and the other email
accounts, the "attaching files" would continue on and on, without any result.
The files are not big, and there were no other windows open.

HELP!!!

Note:This is only occuring for my Word documents. Attaching pictures are
fine.

Are all your email accounts accessed through the web?
In other words - do you not use an actual email client?

Have you tried a different Internet browser? Did you recently update to
IE7?

Yes, I do use an actual email client, such as the ones I mentioned: Hotmail
and Yahoo!.

No, I did not recently update to IE7.

Those are not email clients.
Those are email servers.
They serve your email to you.
A client is like Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Eudora, PegasusMail,
etc etc...

Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, etc are *not* clients - although some of them may
have a client you can install and use. A client runs on your local machine
and allows you to get email from a server. If you visit a web page to get
your email - you are not actually using a client - but allowing some
applications you are pulling down through your browser (or that is running
on their server) to display your email to you.

So again - do you actually load a client (Outlook, Outlook Express,
Thunderbird, etc) to get to your email or do you open a web browser
(Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, etc) and go to a web page and logon to
get your email?
