Marc:

As Chris has suggested, you may need to do some 'work' in the Classic 
Internet control panel.  Internet (CP) > Web > Default Web Browser (at 
bottom of CP).

In addition to Chris' suggestion, you may also have to go to Safari > 
Pereferences > General and select Safari as your default browser.

As for image files, I think you should still be able to use 'Open with:' 
and 'Change All..." in the Get Info dialogs of OS X.  All my image 
attachments from CE open in Preview, so I must have done something of the 
kind along the way.  Same with .txt... all should open in TextEdit, but 
may need some tweaking in Get Info to make work.

Thanks again for the Temp Incoming / Spotlight tip... it looks like it 
may have solved the problem once and for all.

Best Wishes.

Peter B.
