Can't open email attachments

[Stuart Southerland]

Since SP2, I can't even open attachments sent from my office to home.
Outlook insists on protecting me from these possibly unsafe attachments.

Ideas? Could this be the fault of my office network, which recently
installed the new 2003 Outlook? (I was warned when I sent the attachment
that there might be a problem for the recipient, but the attachment was just
a web link which I'm reasonably sure was perfectly safe...) I've still got
the previous version at home. I just know that I didn't have problems until
SP2, and I know that SP2 is "all about security."

I'm so confused I don't even know which end to start with!

Stuart,

Are we talking about Outlook Express at Home? If you are the following link
shows you where to enable the Downloading of attchements:
