Problem with attachments automatically saving as Firefox documents

As my older Dell CPU does NOT have any USB ports, a friend of mine is uploading photos to her laptop with Windows 7 (my computer is running XP) but when she goes to save and attach them to Yahoo! emails sent to me, the photos themselves are completely visible within the body of those emails; attempts I make to save them to my desktop result in their being strictly Firefox documents opening a new FF window every time. While I CAN view them with the Windows photo viewer by specifying it, they still CANNOT be attached/uploaded or are visible within upload windows even after adding the .jpeg file extension and quotes as instructed.....I'm not sure if the issue lies with Windows 7 and her configuration of the attachment mechanism, Firefox and/or Yahoo! conflicts or a combination of everything. Please advise; never had this problem before now!

Ask your friend with the Win 7 OS to zip the images before she sends them to you. Also, she needs to add them as an attachment, not by dragging and dropping them into a mail.

By the way, when you say your 'cpu' doesn't have any USB ports, are you talking about a laptop, or a PC?
