Daffy Stuff

[Bill Murray]

Well, Nuyt:

A web search does show such a thing as "pictureviewer.exe" and I guess I could download it but it is all from secondary sites and I have a great fear of that.

Regarding your other solution, remember that the scanner software has "kidnapped" my Favorite Pictures in that it blocks opening any of them, not just the few I scanned yesterday. Also if I go to the HP Manager icon I can get both just the ones I scanned and also all of the rest I had residing in that file.

I am not sure where to go from here. There were 4 graphics suites included on the install CD and three of them installed, the fourth I didn"t want and should not have had any effect.

I am not real good at this but am considering trying to uninstall the whole deal at this point but even then I may miss something.
I do not understand why even the best manufacturers cannot come up with common programming on such everyday things as a scanner and have it work with MS/AOL or whatever without all of these really frustrating problems.
Sorry to clutter up the BB, but if I don't get it resolved one way or the other, no more neat pics:
