caused by interference from an antivirus program. Which antivirus are you
running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus should be turned off,

In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.
Email scanning in any antivirus should be disabled, for reasons

If no improvement after disabling email scanning, consider upgrading
to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects
from overly intrusive antivirus programs:
