cannot open attachments/ kan bijlagen niet openen

C

Cwm

ik heb al een aantal keer het probleem gehad dat ik bijlagen niet kon
openen, omdat ze niet werden 'herkend', het ging om gewone. doc extensies.
Weet iemand hoe dit probleem te verhelpen: het is echt vervelend en lastig.
Cwm

I cannot open some attachments in my mail although they are just .doc
extensions (like newsletters etc.)
Does anyone know how to change settings or solve this problem otherwise??

If you save them can you open them?

Tools | Options | Security
Uncheck "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that may potentially
be a virus".

Hi, Frank I also have the same problem. I did what you told CWM to do but I
still can't open them.
when I receive an email, I open the message and then have to open the
attachment. Before when I was on windows 98, i didn't have this problem. Let
me give you an example of what I am trying to know how to fix. I receive my
horoscope every morning. When opening my message the whole site used to
appear. now I just get text and have to open the attachment. but what I find
weird is that when I click on reply, I see the whole page site. Another
thing, when i sometimes forget my password for a site, they send it to me.
But in their email it says "Click Here". when I try, it doesn't work or it's
not highlighted like before. windows Vista is a hard program with a lot of
new things. How can I get my attachments and site pages to open as soon as I
open the message? Please help because I am at my wits end with this problem.
Can anyone out there help me.?
Thanks.

Hi, after posting here, I was talking to a friend about it and he helped me
fix the problem. I had checked marked Show Text Only. So I unchecked it and
went back and worked.
but thanks for your reply.
