ATTACH URL for file actaully on web not on local HDD

Hi, I am using the following code

dim xs
xs = """" & "http://www.myURL.com/prodimg/" & rstProduct.fields.getValue("Image") & """"
Set myMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
myMail.AttachURL xs , rstProduct.fields.getValue("Image")
myMail.bodyFormat = 0
myMail.mailFormat = 0
myMail.From = "here@there.com"
myMail.To = "craig@anyway.com"
myMail.Subject = "TESTING"
myMail.Body = HTML
myMail.Send
Set myMail = Nothing

I have the following code in the HTML build up

HTML = HTML & "<td width=304><img border=1 src=" & """" & rstProduct.fields.getValue("Image") & """" & " width=300 height=300></td>"

I am trying to get the image to be embeded into the mail so that it can viewed by the recipient without them having to be online, I keep getting a page cannot be displayed error from the server.... any ideas...

BTW what do I have to do to my local machine running PWS to be able to test this code, or does it need to run on an NT server for the CDONTS function to work, its a real pain having to upload the files to my ISP to test it.

Regards

Craig
