I use Outlook XP and upgraded to IE7. After all the updates, I now get url's
blocked from everyone. How do I turn off url and potentially unsafe url's
from being blocked entirely?
Thanks

Blocked in what way? Are these typed URLs?
What happens when you click on them?

Roady;
Thanks for the reply.
There is a yellow bar at the top of the message. I saved a bmp of my screen
but I can't paste it here. It says "Outlook blocked access to the following
potentially unsafe attachments: http--www.youtube.com-watch-v=xHWTLA8WecI.url
I can't click on it, copy it, anything.
Do you know what I mean? How to allow these url?

Thank you for the reply and the warning.
I looked at the Outlook support page. I won't alter my registry now, but
appreciate you sharing this. I'll live without this url for now. However, I
would think my antivirus would catch a virus coming in as an attachment.
Maybe not? That's why I will learn more before altering th registry.

With today's fast spread of viruses it could be that you receive the virus
before your virus scanner has been updated ;-)
