    Thanks Suzanne.

    I get this HTTP error in both word & outlook when trying to define a new bullet:

    ... Bullet Library > Define New Bullet > Picture (before options to browse or bing search) = http error

    also in word:

    Design > Watermark > Custom Watermark > Picture Watermark > Select Picture = http error

    Insert > Pictures > Online Pictures = works fine
