Surrogate Error When Opening JPG's

Hey,

I have a user having an issue with opening JPG attachments. The user always gets the error:

COM Surrogate has stopped working

This is when JPG’s are associated to the Windows Picture and Fax viewer.

If I change the JPG association to Paint it opens fine.

Has anyone seen this before and/or has a fix?

It is on WIN 7 - 8.53

Subject: Try Googling the error message…

Lots of threads out there on this issue by the looks of it, and it is not a Notes problem.
