Microsoft Download Notification -Email irritation

Anne · External Since: Jul 18, 2006 Posts: 76

Microsoft download notifications show x everywhere there should be a picture
(I assume).
This is even though the domain is on the safe sender list. I only have this
problem with microsoft emails. Emails from other vendors are fine. How do I
fix this.
Outlook 2003, Windows Vista.

Microsoft [Microsoft@newsletters.microsoft.com]

Maybe you have AV or someother software intergrated with OL that is causing
the issue.
PS since you can set MS Update to download/notify it seems a bit perverse
that you would want further notifications cluttering up you mail

It only happens with this one email. Perhaps someone else has a better
suggestion than to quit receiving them.

This is not an Office issue. It has to do with IE when a red x shows instead of a
picture. You need to post to the appropriate IE newsgroup to get an answer for this
issue

For IE7 and 8 On the web:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.asp...g=micro

Meanwhile see the following

Microsoft NEVER sends e-mail containing downloads for you to install. Never
install any update attached to a message claiming to be from Microsoft.
Never. They contain trojan horses and other malware. Install updates only
via the Microsoft Update web site.
