When forwarding emails, pictures are stripped from text & put in slide show destroying original

I have Windows 7 & IE8. When I receive a perfectly good email with pictures or gif's embedded in the text and TRY TO FORWARD IT, the forwarded email has all the pictures stripped out & put in a slide show. The text is full of the dreaded red x's & the whole thing is unreadable.

How can I stop this? Turn off the slide show feature?

    This promise is approaching a year.  Any new prognosis?

    Tom, because of this inconsistency  & the problems in printing the calender, I was toying with using Thunderbird but that too has a problem or two but have loaded Outlook & so far, so good.

    Hello YMR5577 - Ron

    I agree with you 100% when you say "the bug, is not consistent". I have noticed some other things that make me wonder if there have been some changes and/or some improvements made. ( I use the term improvements loosely - lol ). If there has been changes. I sure wish there was some way that we WLM users could find out about this. I have searched and searched and searched and found nothing. In the meantime I am monitoring these WLM posts while I use Windows Outlook for most things.

    And to make me cranky, it, the bug, is not consistent, sometimes it strips the photo & adds it as an attachment to be viewed as a slide show thus ruining the story line with photos & the next time, all is good.
