    Email issues with internet explorer is nothing new, often all it takes is to delete your cash and cookies then restart your computer.

    Click Tools then Internet Options.

    In the History section click delete and delete again on the next page. Click OK and you are done.

    This will clear your cookies, cash and temporary internet files. Restart your computer.

    If this dose not help use a different web browser like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.

    - Try different browser.

    - Check email security level and setting of your antivirus.

    Anyway I found it much easier to use one of free services on the Internet to send files online however they're small or big.

    Try http://itrnsfr.com/

    It's very easy, fast and no registration required

  • firefox did not solve the issue
