I've been pulling my hair out over this one for days. Even though it is a small problem, it was damned annoying. Thanks so much for posting this. You rock.

In some days I receive more than 20/25 emails with 6 pictures each. I noticed that I can open every message and see the pictures until exactly the email where the magic number of 99 pictures is reached. In that email (where I see pictures 97, 98 and 99, pictures 100, 101 and 102 are not viewable (red cross on them). To see them I don't need to edit the registry, I simple close Outlook 2003 and reopen. If I start viwewing the emails again, the 99 counter is in some way reset, and I can see view the pictures for another run of 99. Since in the meantime I moved the emails that were already checked to a different folder in Outlook (most of them to the Deleted items folder), I can avoid to reopen the same emails twice. This is more practical for me than to change the registry every time. Of course I would love to have a permanent solution, but I hope this can help somebody.

That worked. Turned out the person who was having the problem had not run her regular maintenance in several months. Just a disc clean up might have fixed it, but I did follow your instructions and the imbedded pics are back. Note that depending on what outlook version you are on the pat will vary. I have 2007 and she has 2003 so mine had an added folder referenced of "Content.Outlook" and my folder stars wt RNBJ instead of the OLK. Thanks Nitescan! That worked.

This works, if you have tried everything else and still have the red X, go to internet options>Connections>LAN Settings>uncheck “Use a proxy server…”

To do so, navigate to the registry entry in the oriianl instructions. Double click the OutlookSecureTempFolder key and copy the entire path to the Outlook Cache folder. Now open up notepad and type in: del /q "C:\Documents and Settings\derickson\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKxxx\*.*" Replace the OLKxxx with the actual name of your OLK folder. It will be different for everyone. Now save the file as ClearOutlook.CMD. You can name the file whatever you want, but make sure you change the extension to CMD. You will have to change the file type in the Save As window in Notepad to All Files. Now create a new shortcut in your Start Up folder in your Start menu. That will run it everytime your system boots and will clear out the folder.
