I just installed Outlook 2007 and found that on some emails some of the
graphics are not displayed at all and the format of the html is incorrect.
This has been happening mostly with email from CNET, although other emails
are also missaligned and so forth. In Outlook 2003 I did not have this
problem.

This is because the rendering engine of Outlook for HTML has been switched
from Internet Explorer to Word. Quite some newsletters that do all kinds of
graphics stuff needed some redesigning to support this. Most of them didn't
have much issues with this though. Apparently CNET hasn't fully modified
theirs yet.

For the ones that get incorrectly rendered you can try opening the message
in a browser.
