Why doesn't Defender Beta 2 like my Outlook 2003 startup shortcut?

[Peter R. Fletcher]

Every time I reboot, Defender Beta 2 pops up a ?changed question mark about
the shortcut to Outlook 2003 that I have in my personal (rather than 'All
Users') startup folder. I accept the default handling of this ('Allow') and
dismiss it, only to have the same sequence next time I reboot. This is
getting a little irritating. I know that there are people who don't trust
Microsoft software (and Outlook, in particular), but I wouldn't expect
Microsoft to be among them!!

True, but how do I report the problem to someone who may be able to fix it
for the final version?

I answered the question. If you don't like the way I post, learn how to
use a kill file.

No you didn't answer the question. That's the point. Learn how to pass on
those quetions that you can't contribute something meaningful to.

I was asked a direct question. I answered it. If you don't like the
answer, well, bugger off and try to get over it. Like I said, if you
don't want to read my posts, learn how to use a kill file.

BTW, your posts to me just now didn't answer the OPs question either.
You are just being a net nanny and I have no use for net nannies.

sorry.

Contact the Author of Defender BETA, since you are a BETA tester, and
tell them what the problem is with your BETA ware.
