This is absolutely the most frustrating issue I have. Whether I scan an image or download from a digital camera, the images that show up in IE as an attachment to an email or whatever are absolutely HUGE!<br><br>I have tried changing the resolution of the image (JPEG format), different formats, resizing, you name it.<br><br>Does anyone know what's happening to me?<br><br>Thanks
