OE not letting me at attachments

[spickee]

Just upgraded to SP1 on XP.

Now OE will not let me at any attachements people send me.

Just says OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail.

Since when did I ask it to do that. I can't find a way to stop it doing this, any suggestions.

Look in the tools, option, read section.

There is a check box to remove access to read/open attachments. I prefer to let mine set that way because 100% of the emails with attachments I get are viruses from people I do not know.

It is a shame you can not set outlook to only allow the names in your address book

Are you running any antivirus by any chance?

"The pot calling the kettle black" LOL

But seriously, without Norton, I would spend more time reloading my OS than reading my e-mails.
