Opening pictures in newsgroup

[jag]

I recently downloaded IE 7 and now when I try to download a picture in a
newsgroup posting, I have an attachment to click on. Where as before, if I
clicked on the header, the picture was right there. How can I fix this. Or
is this even a function of IE 7?

Is this in a NNTP newsgroup that you are accessing with Outlook Express as
you are for this post? Were you reading in HTML and now reading in Plain
Text?

If you used to see graphics you were reading in HTML. If they now show as
an attachment, you are reading in Plain Text.

In OE: Tools | Options | Read. Uncheck: Read all messages in plain text.

Bingo, sir! That fixed the problem! Thank you very much. I not only fixed my
