Unwanted email slideshow attachment

Hi all, - I'm not especially computer savvy but I hope someone might point me in the right direction.

Outlook Express has started showing an attachment on every email from one particular person. This person did not send any attachment and I never had this happen with their emails in the past. At their request I fowarded their email back to them but they could not see any attachment although the attachment showed in my sent folder.

It is always a slideshow with pictures from my temporary internet files. If I clear the temporary internet files, the attachment is still there but with no pictures.

When I looked at the properties of their email the first line was something like "bounced@infusionmail.net"? I apologize - I'm not at home right now and don't have the exact wording. Previous emails from them had no mention of "bouncing". I do know that they use infusion software.

My computer has Windows XP, Norton Internet Security, Norton Anti-Spam and Ad-Aware.

Any thoughts on this?
