IE7 - Can't save HTML pictures

IE7

When I right-click on a picture that is embedded in an email I get a message
to the effect - can't find picture?

Only happens with embedded files - not attached files, they display fine

Is this unique to me?

I cannot say for sure but you might have your Outlook Express 'Format'
setting on 'Plain Text' when you right click. (One cannot insert a graphic'
when editing OE on that setting - so it's a good bet you cannot open one
either) So try clicking "Format" & toggle 'Rich Text'

Problem most likely is with the sender. If they use Outlook Express, have
them check their settings under Tools/Options/Send - then HTML button and
make sure the "Send pictures with messages" is checked.

For other possible causes of the Red 'x' problem, see this link:
