Cant open attachments

I am running Vista Home Premium and Windows mail. About 4 days ago Mail
decided that it will not permit me to open any attachments. I have unchecked
the attachements box in settings, disabled my AVG 8.0 and subsequently
de-installed it, all to no avail. Any suggestions welcomed.
