Default Icons added?

Hi,

I haven't had this problem for a long time, but from what I recall,
it is possibly on the other end sometime.
Try sending yourself an email with an image in and even one you
attach to see if those come through.
The Security settings in Options is the reason some email clients
don't send out images.
And this may further explain

hope this helps,
dcdon

Or you'd been lax with your updates and just got it fully

patched.

I've had the computer 6-7 years, and all updates have been
installed within days of my being notified they were
available. So, the mystery continues.

Thanks.

Yes, exactly.

That should have always been there.

Computer was purchased new from Gateway in 2000, with
Windows 2000 installed at the factory. Never saw these
icons until a few weeks ago. I guess my computer is a
little slow. :-)

As for the exact icon that you see,
that's dependent on your file associations. Should be

the same icon
that you see when you look at folders using Windows

Explorer in Details
mode.

Yes they are the same icons, and they now also appear in
Windows Explorer. Is there a way to omit these icons?

Possibly something that you recently installed changed

the icons for GIF
and JPG, such a an image viewer or image editor

program.

No image viewers or image editor programs added for

years.

This is very mystifying to me; and I can live with it.

:-)

Thanks.

After I did the latest updates from Microsoft I

noticed that
when I get emails with photos as attachments, there is

now a
set of icons in use just before the name of the file

as
shown under attachments. For example, before this I

might
get an attachment that showed as:

image123.jpg

it now appears as:

[x]image123.jpg

where [x] consists of a small rectangle with JPG

imposed
over it. If the attachment is [x]image456.gif, then

[x] is
the small rectangle with GIF imposed over it.

I don't know if this is related to the updates from
Microsoft, or if I accidentally changed some option
somewhere. I prefer to avoid icons whenever I can, so

any
ideas about how I might avoid these would be

appreciated.

Many thanks.
