Re: JPEG security risk message

Adam:
I am having the exact problem you describe. I took 169 picturs today for my
job and when i download them 2 dozen had the problems you described. The all
started when I got a new Hp computer with Vista Home Premium. I downloades
the same photos to my XP laptop and no problems. I even transfered them from
the XP laptop to the Vista desktop and they were fine. I tried another camera
and put the memory car in the desktop reader and they were corrupt. I use
these photos foy my job and can't have the ruined by Vista. Any idea what the
problem is?
