Attachments don't float somewhere out in the cyber ether while disconnected from e-mails. Attachments are *in* e-mails. Why did you install or leave installed Windows Live Mail if you don't want to use it? If you want to default to opening *e-mails* in Outlook Express, make it your default e-mail client (Internet Options - Programs tab). Whether or not Outlook Express is available on your host depends on WHICH version of Windows you have but never mentioned. |
