I have a script that copies emails into Excel, but I just delete the pictures that it copies in since I only need the text. I just realized now that copying the pictures like that is making it slow down tremendously, and I am wondering if there is any way to keep it from downloading them at all.

I know I asked this before, but the answers I got didn't really work (and yes, I did actually rediscover that it slows it down).

Update: The script is an autokey script that copies the whole email, switches to excel, and pastes it in. In this question on Stack Overflow, I asked how to use a vba script to copy emails over, and later figured out the question to this problem using VBA. VBA works better, but I would like to know if there is any way to prevent the picture from being inserted at all for the benefit of anyone who finds this question in the future.

Preventing Excel from displaying images may not necessarily solve the issue. It may require the script to change. What kind of script is it? Can you post the script so we can see what you are working with? – CharlieRB Oct 6 '11 at 17:54
