Default Outlook 2007 emails being sent as attachments

I was informed by my son that when I either reply or send a new message to his Gmail account that my messages are coming through as attachments. There is nothing in the body. This apprarenly just started happening. Can anyone think of a reason this is happening?
The only thing I can think of is that I have Spy Doctor monitoring my incoming and outgoing emails. When I receive an email it says that is was checked by Spy Doctor at the bottom of the email. Since then I have shut that option off.

It's most likely spy doctor doing it. In many cases, simply turning it off
won't help, you need to uninstall it.

I shut off Spy Doctor from scanning emails and that did the trick. I have had Spy Doctor for a few years and that does does not have anything to do with what happened to me. What I did was enable the email scan which I had not done before. I have McAfee running for email checks so that is fine. Spy Docotr is a good program and should not be installed.
