Thank you for the update!

Matt

Please see the following fixes which are available via Microsoft for Outlook
2003 and Outlook 2007.

Oulook 2007

952001 In Office Outlook 2007, you cannot open Macintosh binary attachments
after you install security update MS08-015

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;952001



Outlook 2003.

951678 Description of the Outlook 2003 hotfix package: April 15, 2008

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;951678

This should allow some of the jpg pictures to be open but if there is
additional metadata in the header of the file, it may not be recognised by
windows picture and fax viewer i.e GDIplus doesn't recognise it.

Hope this helps people out there.

Cheers,
Ian

Ian,

Thank you for the information, any chance you can elaborate on a few things?
You stated "this should allow some..." - this implies not all images will
work again - is this correct, and if so, will another fix be coming down the
pipe that will correct all? Do you know if this will be pushed in the
upcoming Windows Update releases? Lastly, on the links provided, there are
no download options, nor on any of the associated pages for this issue.

Thanks again,

Dave

I can't answer the questions posted to Ian, but take the "go" (below) link
the KB article. This will take you to a web request form. Fill it out and
it should take about 8 hours to get. (I requested this morning at 3AM and
had the download link & password by 10AM.)

I have installed this patch on about 10 computers so far, all of them are
working like a charm after.


Thanks to everyone, especially Neo and Ian, for pushing this problem through
to resolution.

Agreed, I've been working on this for a few days, and this is the first time a result has appeared for it.

Major thanks to all those who got results!
