I would first clean out temporary internet files then run updated virus scan.....
Trend micro housecall, panda active scan, symantec, and others have free online scans if you have no antivirus program
A fairly good free antivirus program is AVG free 6

Good luck

Thanks for the reply, I have run NAV and it reports no viruses. I did find out that when I get this message I can go to file and save attachment and then view it in my word processor. I was just trying to find out what was causing this. It started giving me this message since I added DSL. I have checked my settings in OExpress to allow attachments but cannot solve this problem.

Thanks Everyone.
Joe
