I can't open .gif or .jpg files in email attachments

I have Office 2007 and Vista Home. Incoming attachments to email messages
with .jpg or .gif extensions won't open, even though I have associated PAINT
with both of these. Is there some special problem with Attachments to EMAIL?
I've disabled Norton Security thinking that it was trying to protect me but
the same problem persists.

Try saving the attachments to a temp folder and then open them.
