I need the missing msimx.exe file? So it will open the attachment with
Outlook Express...

Do you have one of the programs for Windows listed here?

If you do:

Save the attachment to your HDD. Right click on it and Open With |
Choose
Program. Find and choose a program that works and then check the box:
Always use this program to open this kind of file. This should enable
you to open these attachments in the future.

If you don't have a program listed, here is the site for IrfanView.

Download IrfanView at:

I have received emails with .emf attachments. I understand that I
need
to associate this file extension with msimx.exe, but this file is
missing from
my Outlook Express folder. How do I install this missing .exe file?
