I haven't tried this but what do you think
I run AVG would reinstalling with a custom install and deselect the e-mail
scanning option fix this problem ??

Hi Gary

Have now added Size to my Messages. Have a variety of sizes which didn't
fwd successfully: 45KB, 76KB, 1157K for example. Also (having read your
advice on other threads), as I'm working with Windows Mail, I've uninstalled
Norton antivirus and now only have Avast installed.

After you uninstalled Norton, did you use this to help clean up?

<http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039>

It's also sometimes necessary to remove the email account under
Windows Mail, then create it again, to get rid of the last of the
problems caused by Norton.

When you installed avast!, did you use the default install? If so,
it may help to uninstall it, and then do a custom install that tells
it to leave out the part that scans email.

Hi Robert

I didn't use your link to clean up after deinstalling Norton so will do that
now. Will also deinstal Avast! and re-do a customer instal, as you suggest,
and remove email a/c from Windows mail and recreate it. I'll try anything!
Thanks for your suggestions.

Robert/Gary

I uninstalled Avast, as suggested by Robert, and reinstalled it as a custom
instal, leaving out the 'scan email' part and ran the Norton clean-up
......... but it hasn't solved the problem. I'm loathe to remove my Microsoft
Windows email account because I assume that I'll lose all my saved
emails/addresses etc (and I've got a lot to lose). Any suggestions?

Yoshi, I have all my settings on my new computer same as on my old computer.
New one is one week old. I had the problem with Microsoft Mail before I even
installed Norton Anti-Virus on the new computer. I did not install the
Norton Security Try It that came with the computer. The problem persists
whether or not I have any anti-virus program. I used both Norton AV and AVG
on my old computer and had no problem sending out viewable images with my
emails. I think what we need to do is re-install Microsoft Mail but since it
was pre-installed on my computer, I am not sure how I can do that.

If you mean Windows Mail, make sure anything you want to attach is
closed in all other programs when you attach it.

When I am on email, everything else is closed. I use Forward to send on
pictures, cartoons, etc. I rarely send attachments unless it is a
work-related document which is either a Word or Word Perfect document and
never with images but thanks for the thought.
