IT Queries: Computer problems answered

I was sent some jpeg and text under each pic. What I received was all the pics in subject line and text randomly scattered in main body of the e-mail. I looked at all HTML setting but to no avail.
I have Vista, IE7 and Outlook 2007.
please help

The problem is your computer is not associating JPEG files properly. It’s trying to open them as a text file rather than as a picture.

File associations are a long standing problem, we’ve previously covered fixing this in Windows XP, but Vista is slightly different.

First click the Windows button, select Control Panel then Default Programs and Set Associations.

You’ll get a list of all the suffixes Windows recognises. Scroll down to JPEG, click the Change Program button in the top right hand corner and there will be a list of programs that your computer can use. We’d suggest using Photogallery or Paint.

Click Close and reboot your computer.
