images

I have been using Outlook 2007 for over a year with no image problems. Around September 1st, images that I paste into messages are enlarged in the messages.

This happends with WinSnap, the Vista Snipping Tool, or any jpeg pasted into the message
I tried jpegs with 96dpi settings w/o sucess
I tried different Outlook Format Picture ... and Size ... settings
Problem happens with both RTF and HTML messages
Attached images are ok

Something mysteriously changed and I cannot figure it out. I googled this to death without any success (others have the problem but there is no solution). This is driving me nuts because I snap screenshots all day long ("a picture is worth a thousand words").

Thanks in advance.
