331012 2005-03-05 20:18:00 When I get email containing photos from the sender, the photos display OK, but sometimes they send what seem to be web pages, and then the writing shows but there are red crosses where the pics should be. I have tried clicking on the crosses to show the pics but nothing works. Any ideas why I can't see the pics please? weemaxcat (5900)
331013 2005-03-05 20:48:00 Are u using XP SP2??

If so, this is for security. When u get these emails, do u see a message above the email saying Some pictures have been blocked to prevent the sender from identifying your computer. Click here to download pictures?

If so, click on this, and you'll see whatever.

331014 2005-03-06 00:33:00 Yes I use Xp and SP 2 - I tried clicking on that to download the pics but they still didn't come through. I have checked the website thay originated from and they are still there. Thanks for your reply weemaxcat (5900)
331015 2005-03-06 00:40:00 Open OE go to tools/options/security .

Untick do not allow attachments, and block images the option under it .

See if it makes any diff . Its not a good idea leaving these unticked tho, in case its a file or something u click on that may affect your system .

Well yer if a website has pics, they wont go anywhere if u download them from a site . They'll stay at the site .

Yes I realise that, it's just that someone said maybe the pics were no longer valid on the site .
Thanks for your suggestions, I'll see what happens now
