If you have Windows XP and use Outlook Express for email and installed Service Pack 2 and now can't see pictures in HTML email messages, here's the solution to view the pics.


After installing SP2, it enables a number of new security features, including blocking of images and other external content in HTML mail. This is designed to prevent spammers from sending messages with images, including Web beacons which are small images that, when downloaded to a computer, let the sender know that the HTML mail has been viewed.

You can turn this feature off. Here's how:

1. Click Start | All Programs | Outlook Express.
   
2. Click the Tools menu and select Options.
   
3. Click the Security tab.
   
4. Uncheck the box labeled "Block images and other external content in HTML e-mail."
   
5. Click OK.
