I received an email attachment with a jpg extention that showed up as pages of this:

What is going on?
 
What program did it open in to show that text?
You may have to reset your file types to have jpg files open in a picture viewer, etc.
I would recommend checking to see what program your jpg files are set to open in by default.

The file types are correctly set - ArcSoft opens my JPGs. This garble shows up in the email program itself - both Eudora and Outlook and does not show up in the attachments or embedded folders.
