Outlook Express won't show pictures.
Not sure what's wrong but I'm getting those tiny boxes containing small red crosses instead of pictures/photos when I get e-mails from companies such as ebuyer, amazon e.t.c.
Any idea what the problem is 
Thanks in advance.

Re: Outlook Express won't show pictures.
Whenever i get an email containing images, there is a little toolbar at the top of the e-mail saying "Images were blocked" ...blah blah blah... "Click here to show images"
But I think that depends on which office version you are using o.o

Re: Outlook Express won't show pictures.
Not quite sure if this will help for pics in HTML emails but...
In Tools menu, options, have a look in the security (I think) tab and if you can see an option referring to something about preventing downloading attachements then make sure this is unchecked. This "feature" was introduced from OE version 6 and is checked by default.

Or:
