Hey guys,

I have an interesting question that I can't seem to solve...

Everytime I go to open a .jpeg that has been emailed to me, Windoze tells me that I need "mozilla.exe" to view it...
What the heck is the deal with that. I am using outlook express as my email, and it previews the jpegs in the preview pane. I can view the Jpeg IN outlook, but if I try and save it, say as a wallpaper, I get the "Mozilla.exe" crap. Now I know about the Mozilla.org beta internet browser, and seem to remember downloading a version a while back, but have since deleted the files and have actually done a fresh re-install of everything. I am not understanding what the problem is... Can anyone out there tell me how the heck I get outlook to point to Internet Explorer or any other JPEG viewer as opposed to using mozilla, which no longer even exist on my HD???

Pls and thanks

Jason

Cool

There are a couple of ways to do this.

1. Right click on a jpeg and select "open with" then select the program that you want to use and check the box to "always use this program to open files of this type" or something to that tune.

----If you don't have the open with option

2. Open "My Computer", click on view and then options, select the "File Types" tab, find the jpg extension in the list, select and delete. Then locate a jpeg file on your machine and double click it should then start the above procedure (1).

HTH
