Default Outlook Problems- Plz Help

I had to recover my system last week. (Virus infection and 2 inches of dust
in my tower case)
After what seemed to be endless downloads from windows update I am running
IE6 SP3.
My Outlook is giving me problems
1. Mail Password is not saved. (I have permission in registry, tried to edit
registry as stated in help thread here- but it didnt allow me to delete the
key)
2. When I try to open a folder while browsing for photo to attach, it
attaches the entire folder instead of allowing me to browse and choose the
photo!

I do not like IE7 and will not upgrade to that. (I need my toolbar wallpaper
moslty and the tabs aggrvate me, and I like 6's layout)

The help wanted me to install sp2 but I have 3-
I am in no way going to do a full recovery again. The thought of a repair
scares me a little (I had to try the system recovery about 12 times til it
took after I cleaned the dustout)
-Thanks for ur help!!!

#1: Outlook Express keeps prompting for your password
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/tips/xp_oe_passwords.htm

Save password setting not retained in Outlook or Outlook Express:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290684

Cannot Save E-Mail Account Password in Outlook Express 5
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=228713

Save Password Check Box Is Unavailable
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=137361
~~~~~

#2: Not quite sure. Can you open the folder by going to it directly and then
right click on the picture and Send To | E-mail recipient? I know this is
not what you want to do, but just trying to narrow it down a bit.
