Up until a few moments ago, I was unable to preview PDF files in emails in Outlook using Windows 7 64bit.
The problem is that Adobe have not updated their installer of Adobe PDF reader to allow the correct values to be set in the registry.
However, there is a fix.
I came across this:

It worked great!

This is something I will use all the time!
Windows 7 has a feature called “Sticky Notes” – basically, these little notes are like post it notes – they stick to your desktop!
You can change the colour, resize, move them around etc… So simple, yet so useful!

After using it, it appears that it does not run in the task bar, as it used to in Vista! This is pretty annoying, as I only keep it open to use now and again.
There is a way around this however… you need to set it to run in Compatibility Mode for Windows Vista.
To do this, first exit Messenger, then locate msnmsgr.exe (in your Program Files directory)
Right click it, select Properties
Choose the Compatibility tab, and select Windows Vista.
Hit ok, and then restart Live Messenger.
It now runs in the notification area!
