Windows Vista Mail -Attachments -PDF

I am currently using the Windows Vista Home Basic. I cannot open e-mails
that have attachments. Do I need to get another programme ? Please assist
me. I am now very frustrated.

under the Security tab of WM options there are check boxes for attachments, review them, set them and see if it helps.

also you must have an appropriate program installed for the kind of attachment you wish to open.'for instance for PDF you must have a PDF reader installed.

Can you save the attachment and open it?
Is this only PDF attachments?
Do you have a PDF reader?
