good old red x

I have gone thru a lot of previous posts, but have been unable to find the one that pertains to me.
When I forward e-mails that contain pictures,as soon as I hit "send" I get following message> "one or more of the pictures in this message could not be found.When you send this message these pictures will not be included. Are you sure you want to send this mwssage?"
This has only been happening the last few days. Never any troubles before.

If you had not said that, I would say that the problem you describe is not uncommon. Usually, an image has just not been properly inserted into the email for you to be able to forward it. It is an image linked to a website and your email program cannot forward the link.
As a work around, send the email to yourself and see what it looks like. If there are important missing images, try to define their source (right click on the image|Properties and copy the Address line). Go to the source directly, Save it and include the saved file as an attachment in your email.
Maybe you will find the problem images are not something you care to forward, anyway.
Even simpler, but perhaps less likely, and no images are being sent, is that your Outlook Express settings have somehow changed. Look at Tools|Options|Send|HTML Settings. Is "Send Pictures with Messages" checked?

If nothing else works, perhaps do a System Restore (assuming you are running a WinOS more current than Win98) to a date before the problem started.

 

I get this once in a blue moon. They are usually there when they are sent.

My outlook express settings were OK. Also did system restores all the way back to the 'first coming'. Only caused more headaches. A month ago I downloaded a freebie. (swore once never to do that again) called 'spamfighter' It was free for 30 days, then either buy program, or be content with the free version.
Which seemed good enough for me. Maybe that was the cause.
I removed entire program and looks like that might ??? do it.
will wait for some e-mails with pix to forward
I don't get really that much spam, that I can't push 'delete'

Thanks for your attention.
