If you feel comfortable with the source. Download the attachment with your e-mail software and make sure you know where you put the file so you can retrieve it later. Sometimes you can view your GIF on your Internet provider software but since I do not know what you have I will tell you the standard way for Win 95: Right click the mouse on your Start button on the taskbar Left click on Explore Find the folder you put the file in on the left side(click on it) and the files within that folder will show up on the right. Double click on file example (Me.GIF) and it will probably ask you where you want to view it. I suggest you view it in paint if you do not have graphic software. Good Luck, Jill M.
