Since last week, every time that I send an email with a picture attachment to
one recipient, recipient receives anywhere from 6 to 25 identical emails
which none of them can be opened.
I use Windows XP with Outlook Express 6 and Kaspersky Internet Security 7
which I installed last September and never did I have this problem until
lastweek. I have ran the Anti Virus manually, cleared all cookies, temporary
files, etc and still have this problem. Any advise as what might be
causing this behaviour all of a sudden and how to fix it will be greatly
appreciated.

1. OE Tools Accounts Mail [account(s)] Properties Advanced Break
apart... (uncheck).

2. Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection, it may be involved in the behavior, and even Symantec
says it's not necessary:

QP
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

3. Send yourself such an attachment. If all is well, the problem's not on
your end (now).

Understand that an attachment adds a ~35% markup to an email, so adding a,
e.g., 1.5MB attachment to a 10KB message becomes a 2.02MB email. Be
considerate of your correspondents and resize photos before sending them.

Thanks. It worked. However, I do not have Norton Anti Virus and do not
believe that one cannot disable email scanning with Kaspersky.

Yes, you can. Read KAV Help or contact Kaspersky Support.
