can't get the right click "send to mail recipient" to attach files to
emails. It's worked for years and suddenly doesn't. I don't know of
anything I've done that would cause this.

The "send pictures via email" and "send email" boxes appear but the
email never appears.

I tried to restore my system, but alas, it will not restore and says I
am missing the necessary files to run a restore. (tried all the
Microsoft fixes)

Any ideas? It's very frustrating having to use the file insert
feature on my emails.

I'm using XP home with Outlook 2003.
