Downloading

[help09]

I emailed myself recently some pictures from the NHL all star game i attended. however, i try to download the pcitures and my computer wont let me. i tried many different programs because my computer is saying it doesnt know what program to used. i tried microsoft word, and it said quicktime and a jpeg compressor are needed to view the pictures. what does this mean? any help would be great, thanks!

What file format are these pictures?  Are you using Outlook Express to receive your email?  Can you save the attached files to a folder outside of Outlook Express?

I just sent a test message, with a photo (jpg file) attached, from Outlook Express to my Gmail account.  I then logged on to my Gmail account using Firefox and downloaded, i.e. directly opened, the photo with Paint.  So, try that.
