In Outlook Express your unable to see images in your messages unless you view the email on line.
You can try deleting your Temporary Internet files. Depending on the version of Internet Explorer you have installed you:
- Close all instances of Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Internet Explorer, and Windows Explorer
- Go to “Start” then “Control Panel” then go into “Internet Options”. Select the “General” tab
- Click the “Delete Files” button
Hopefully, you will be able to see images in Outlook Express again. If that does not fix the issue you can try completely deleting the temporary internet files and index.dat file by:
- Log on as Administrator and delete the desired <username> folder(s) and reboot.
- You can also press “Ctrl-Alt-Del” twice at the Welcome screen to bring up the Administrator account.
“C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files”
“Username” is the account or profile that you suspect is corrupt. Remember to delete the folder (Content.IE5) not just the contents. A new “Content.IE5″ and a set of random named sub-folders and index.dat will be created on restart.
You can not delete these folders from your own account. Hopefully, you will be able to view images. Another fix is to delete the “History” folder and “index.dat” file:
Log on as Administrator and delete the desired <username> folder and reboot.
“C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\HISTORY”
