I don't believe the last Thunderbird update worked, there was a very fast error message. But since then I cannot open jpeg attachments in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. If I go to Tools, then options, the jpeg line is grayed out, and the drop down menu does not show Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. The windows picture and fax viewer still works on my computer, but not for opening attachments.

Go back to the attachment tab in options and delete the entry tor jpeg. The next time you try to open one you should be asked for the preferred application. Select Picture and Fax Viewer.

I did as you said - deleted the entry for jpeg, but when I tried to open one there is not an option for Picture and Fax Viewer in the drop down, and it can't be found by browsing. It's just not there anywhere even though I can see pics in it except in email attachments.

From this discussion it is next to impossible to find. http://www.softwaretipsandtricks.com/forum/windows-xp/5073-where-windows-picture-fax-viewer-hiding.html
