Windows Picture and Fax Viewer - slide show

I'm new to this so please forgive any obvious mistakes I make with this post. Maybe this is an obvious question..... I open photos from e-mails using Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. All seems to work fine, but why when I click the forward or backward arrow in the toolbox do I get many images from various webpages that I have visited? I did not save these images when I viewed them so why are they showing up in the slide show? Sometimes they are just images of text blocks, title bars, and sometimes just photos. Is there a way to stop this? Also, if I forward an e-mail or an image to someone else, do they recieve all this extra "junk" too? Must be some obvious thing I am doing wrong? Thanks so much for the help! The "rookie".

You should be able to workaround this situation by either moving (a combination of 
copying it to a new location and then deleting the original) or just copying, the 
images in question to, let's say, the My Pictures folder in the My Documents folder. 
 Once in this dedicated location, the back and forth buttons will display only the 
images that are in the My Pictures folder.

What you are doing now is viewing the pictures while it is still located in the Temporary 
Internet Files folder.  Along with the picture are hundreds and hundreds of all manner 
or graphics and images that are saved on disk so that, in order to speed up browsing, 
they can be read from the disk and displayed much faster than downloading them all 
over again.

When the viewer displays the images, there is a "clear all" button next to the "select all" button. I assume that it is to clear all the images out of the viewer, but when I click on that it just freezes everything up. I don't want 600 plus images in that viewer. How do I get rid of them?
