Vista - Windows Vista communicating with Windows XP

Have Vista on home pc and dial into work exchange to view emails via internet
which are in xp format. Problem is that when viewing emails, and try to
reply or foward and email, all I get a little box in the top left hand corner
of the email with a red cross through it????

Never had this proble prior to switching to Windows Vista

Please help - my carrer hangs in the balance. Starting to think Vista was
almost a waste of money !!

Thanks

Do you actually mean you access your work Exchange Server via Outlook Web
Access after just making an Internet connection or do you VPN into your
office network and access that way, or via an Outlook client and is this VPN
or RPC over HTTP with just an Internet connection?
If it is via the Outlook client what version are you running
What version of Exchange Server are you using at the front end?

Something is blocking.
You are using Internet Explorer?
