With the SP2 pack, I get the message "some pictures have been
blocked......click here to download pictures"....When I click on it, I still
have the red "x" and no picture...now what ???

Try and see if you disable your firewall like Zone Alarm if that will let you see
the pictures. Post back with result . Could be something else but try that first

Uncheck the option to block pictures that are not actually in the message.
This blocks pictures that are on the Net and included by reference and
thereby blocks Web bugs, which inform someone that the message was actually
opened.

This option is unblocked.....see the above post re my regedit
question.....maybe this has been the problem...as some pictures come
through....is it ok to change my Content type...or will that cause another
problem ??

If they're BMP images that's the problem.
