More than likely your ISP Spam Blocker is preventing  OE from open attatchments. 
Check with your ISP.

If these are attatchments you are expecting from someone you know, be sure to put 
the sender's eMalil address in your address book.

If unexpected Thank your ISP for preventing you from doing something stupid.

Unexpected eMail with Attachments is one of the major sources of infecting your System 
with Virus' and other Malware.

Have you tried this?


On the outlook Express page click on tools at top, select options, select security tab. Make sure that the item "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened ...etc" is unchecked. See if it solves the problem.
