Use "Image / Image Size" to scale up the size of an image. Use one of the "bicubic" extrapolation methods provided in the drop-down list... experiment for best results.
However: You'll just get a BIG blurry picture if you start with a SMALL blurry one, no matter what extrapolater you use. Photoshop can, within certain small limits, "automatically" or "mechanistically" sharpen an enlarged digital pic whose original is taken off the internet
Among many useful features is "unsharp mask," which simulates an old darkroom technique. This feature is in Photoshop CSn (v8.0 and higher), and probably is in v7.0 as well, if I recall correctly. Look up "unsharp mask" in Photoshop Help to learn about its use or, even better, look it up in good Photoshop books; there are hundreds from which to choose.
Too radical an application of "unsharp mask," and other similar features, introduces ugly image "artifacts" which make the image worse, not better.
A badly blurred, or really low-quality, or terribly low-resolution pic is going to remain just that... a poor image no matter WHAT you try in Photoshop or any other editor.
A person with good artistic talent can, however, use the bad image as a guide to completely re-make (re-create, re-draw) the original pic... By using virtual brushes, etc. and applying many hours of eye-straining effort and time.
I hope this helps.

Yes, but it requires certain software to do it, for example: Photoshop CS2 or Fireworks will be able to expand the picture, it will make it blurry, but you can fix that with those programs, if you just want to do it for the one time or so, you can get free downloads of those programs at http://www.macromedia.com for Photoshop and fireworks at microsoft. To buy these prgrams are a little spendy

It depends on how big you want it to be. well here it is, open the picture in photoshop, click on Image >> Image Size. Then choose the size which you want. Then sharpen the image.Voila, you're done!

no, because the quality is at the right amount for the size of the picture. the bigger you make, the less valuable the quality becomes.
