My XP desktop used to ask me if I wanted to resize my
pictures when I click on the "Email this file" from the
left navigation bar in Explorer. Now it doesn't any
more. Any ideas?

Try it again....

go to...Start / Run and type:

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

OK, I've tried it 4 times. Each time I get the following
response: DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded.

But it still doesn't work!

Ok...I just thought that maybe the space
was left out by accident.

I guess the following free download would
be a useful alternative until you can discover
a solution:

Go to the following link and download and
install: ImageResizer.exe

http://tinyurl.com/36n

Then you can open any folder that contains
images and you will have an option to resize.
Just right click the selected image files and
choose Resize Pictures. You can select one
image or a whole group.

The program will place the resized copies in
the folder with your originals.

BTW...when resizing if you go to...Advanced
Button / Custom...and enter 640 in each field...
that will be a good size for e-mail purposes.

You will have to open a new e-mail message
and attach your images but at least they will
be resized.
