Picture Manager question...

[Mike]

One of the users in my office recieved a picture as an attachment in
an email.
They clicked on the attachement, which opened it up in Picture
Manager.
Below the pic was an arrow that allowed you to scroll through a whole
bunch of pics, from all kinds of locations - Temp Internet Files,
being one of them, which also resulted in alot of embarrasing pics
coming up!
The same person sent a pic via email, which resulted in the same
behavior on their end, getting everyone worried that someone will
think they were sent some inappropriate content!
How can I keep this from happening?

 

[Rob Giordano \(Crash\)]

Change the file associations for image files...jpg, gif, tif, etc. to an
image editor that does not have the ability to easily scroll through the
entire folder...maybe Paint (yuck).

It will only show the pictures that are on the receiver's computer, not the
sender's. The lesson is not to use a shared computer to view anything that
you wouldn't share with anyone else who uses that computer.

Besides that, follow Rob's advice and change the file association.

If you are seeing additional pictures on the computer then someone has been
looking at inappropriate content on the computer being used to view the
email. The arrows at the bottom allow you to view images in the same folder
as the image you are viewing. If opening an image from email then it's
opening in the Temporary Internet files on that computer. IOW, they weren't
send inappropriate content, the content is already on their computer.

So there is no way to restrict where it shows the pictures from?

Not that I know of. The Temporary Internet Files folder is usually used for
email attachments. Empty the Temporary Internet Files and the "naughty"
pictures should disappear. Well...until next time anyway. ;-)
