iPhone photo issue?

I recently downloaded 70+ photos off my iPhone (all taken using iPhone cam v.1.1.2) using the Adobe Photo Element and all of them show up fine either in protrait or landscape within the Element photo organizer screen on my Win XP Pro. However, when I tried to view these same photos using the default Windows photo viewer, most of them would show like up-side-down; basically not in the correct orientation. When I tried the Adobe photoshop (old version), it is also not displaying the photo in the correct orientation and I had to rotate it 90 degree to make it look right. This happens on most of the photos. Is this an iPhone problem? With the exception of Adobe Photo Element, both the Windows photo viewer and Adobe Photoshop can't seem to read the iPhone protrait or landscape correctly on most of the 70+ photos and require a 90 degree rotation. How do I fix this quickly? I don't really want to edit each photo by rotating it 90 degree one at a time. I want to send these photos to friends and relatives and I don't want them to question me if I know how to take a picture... It is quite an annoying problem.
