On embedded images in Outlook Express 6.0 email, I am now getting the
mshtml.hlp missing file message when I right click to save an image. After
much reading it appears this file does not exist anyway. I can do a work
around by forwarding the email back to myself and then right clicking on the
image and this works to save the image without a problem.

The only thing that has changed about my XP Professional system since this
problem started was the installation of IE8 from IE6. I had never installed
IE7. After reading many posts on the Internet, this problem seems to have
started with IE7. I never would not have upgraded to IE8 to had security and
support been continued for IE6. At this point I don't have a choice but to
run IE8. Is there any fix for this problem where I don't have to forward the
email to myself or copy and paste it to Paint to save it?

Try emailing a message to yourself with an embedded image and see if you
receive it correctly. I don't know why forwarding it to yourself works when
the other doesn't, so it could be due to whatever program the sender is
using.
