Outlook Express not allowing me to open any attachments
Just in the past couple of weeks, my OE will not permit
me to open any attachment claiming that there is a virus. All of my emails, incoming and outgoing, are scanned first by Norton. This is happening with two of my sons' computers also. How can we fix it? Thanks, Ellen |

Outlook Express not allowing me to open any attachments
Ellen;
Have you recently applied updates to your computer? Outlook Express: Open Outlook Express. Click Tools, click Options, click Security tab. Uncheck "Do not allow attachments..." This change that Microsoft implemented is to help prevent viruses and other bad code being received with attachments. It is very important to keep your antivirus updated and run it at least weekly. Outlook: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;290497 -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] An easier way to read newsgroup messages: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/p...oups/setup.asp Please respond to newsgroup only for everyone's benefit.
