    Outlook attachments sending as ZIP.

    A number of my co-workers here are having a problem with their outlook. They attach a .doc file to an email in outlook and send it, and when it is recieved, it is in the form of a zip file. Does anyone know what is causing this, where to look to turn the feature off, and how to rectify it?

    I have already done the startup thing. It appears that the removal of the google taskbar has caused the problem to go away. (now to solve the lovely soundcard program). Thanks for your help.

    XP system running at close to 100% all the time

    That bugger! My system was having the above problem, and I turned off most of what XPisfree listed (unless I wasn't sure It wouldn't interfere with what I do, such as use my dsl modem to log on, no logging on means no way to find help) and my problem cleared up. That was friday. Yesterday...
