Some time back, patches and service packs from Microsoft altered the security settings in Outlook Express. For example, take a look at Q843018. It talks about checking the security tab in Options - specifically the setting Block images and other external content. It could be the OE is blocking something and then not letting you delete it.

Failing that, consider trying to reinstall Internet Explorer (which brings OE with it).

Good Luck, ... JDHurst
