Thunderbird problem

[Biggurr]

My O/S is Windows 7 Home Premium Edition.
Recently my Bitdefender 2010 expired and I purchased and installed Bitdefender 2012.
Since that time I am unable to add an attachment to a composed e-mail, save an attachment on an incoming e-mail, insert an image or pic to a composed e-mail or save an image or pic from an incoming e-mail. If I do, Thunderbird freezes and I have to go to Task Manager to free it.
I don't have any problem receiving or sending e-mails as long as I stay away from attachments.
Any suggestions?

If the problem began when Bitdefender 2010 expired (did you uninstall it?) and you installed Bitdefender 2012 consider the possibility that you have a Bitdefender problem, not a Thunderbird problem.

Bet some place in Bitdefender setting that deal with email is other options on attachment and maybe what type so your have to look into that. Remember the Bitdefender has a help so look at it and if it has a search that should help out also to find out where the setting is.
