You mention scan?????????? please explain... is this scan as in look at them or scan as in something to do with a picture scanner??? Unfortunately the english language is full of ambuguities, we need to understand exactly what you are doing to help

as above entwis just option i have on email
Which email client are you using? Is it web based (i.e. that you use Internet Explorer or Firefox) or a 'proper' client like Outlook express or thunderbird.

Scan is not an option I can ever recall being a default option on any email client so I'm guessing its part of some Yahoo installation thats 'adding functionality' to your email program. In my opinion stuff like this tends to just add confusion/problems.

When you say 'download attachment' that doesn't sound quite right. an email comes with attachments. you can either save them or view them in the email. they shouldn't be a need to download them.

In your response to Willow, you mention that a slideshow in WP&F only shows the thumbnails. Can you say how you are doing teh slideshow. Do you click on a folder(which folder) and start something or are you opening WP&F and starting it from there?

TBH its ounds like a problem that actually sat with you would be solved in minutes, its quite hard to sometimes try and understand what people are actually doing and what programs they have installed that are 'interferring' in teh normal process
