I often receive emails with pictures embedded (not attachments) . the
pictures are meant to have moving objects such as cars, people etc when you
open the email, however when I open the email in Outlook 07 (vista), my
pictures are still. Could this be my settings ??????

Outlook 2007 does not allow animation.

You have to open the picture in whatever viewer is assigned to that
filetype to see the animation.
