Outlook 2003 - embedded image - red x - ok when forwarding

Hello,
I am stumped on this.  I've spent some hours researching fiddling with setup.  I have a user who gets RED X where an image should be.  When he forwards it, you can see the image in the forwarding window and some user's can see it when receiving it (except for him).   HTML format, word 2003 as email editor.  Computer is patched.  Windows Vista with office 2003 professional.  You don't get prompted to download the pic as it is embedded.  the techrepublic post below was exactly my problem but nobody there found a solution either.

Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi fitzpab,

Ignor the pdfs comment in my previous post. I meant to say images.

Frankco,
That was it!   Thanks!   I ended up just clearing the whole temp folder which in vista is under c:\users\%user%\appdata\local\temp which I could see after showing hidden.  
Good job!

This worked for me too! I was skeptical, but it worked in XP with Office 2003.
Does anyone have a permanent fix for this? This fix does work but after a month or so we have users who have to continuously have to empty the users OLK folder.
Thanks
