Recently I've not been able to open any emails received from ebay using Outlook 2003. They arrive in my inbox OK but when I try to open them Outlook instantly crashes without even showing the email (it happens as soon as I double click the email) and Outlook shuts down and automatically restarts itself straight away.

This means I can't access and view any of my emails from ebay at all.

I don't have this issue with any other emails received and they all open and display correctly.

Has anyone got any ideas what is causing this?

I know many people don't like Outlook and use something else, but I actually like Outlook (not Outlook Express) and have been using it for years without any problems (until now).

Alas I don't use Outlook, I use Incredimail. Have you got the latest updates for Outlook?

Yep. It is as up to date as possible, but I will run the update checker again now just to make sure (thanks for that reminder).

I am however still using Outlook 2003 and not 2007 as I don't like the newer 2007 interface as much. And the puzzling thing that is very strange is that ebay emails opened perfectly well until recently.

ebay have probably messed around with settings somewhere.

I'm suspicious that they are using some dodgy tracking scripts in their emails now.
