Ok so I have been seeing some of these spam e-mails come in latly. They have images that automatically show up regardless of my security settings and all.

The users are not in my safe senders and I have never chosen to download the images before. This even happens on a new computer that never had outlook installed before.

How are they doing it?!

I have found areas on the web talking about turning the image into binary data and then just using <img src= to link it, but when i test e-mail myself I still get asked to download those images.

Any feedback or validation that I'm not crazy would help. :).

Now see I thought that too, but look at this e-mail and tell me if you have to download the images. This is for some kind of coffee maker and it has both types of images in it, the one that seems to be embedded automatically and the others that you must download.
