How to keep OE system from removing attachments on incoming E-mail

[Perry S.]

Down loaded MS security patch and now when I get an E-
mail with attachments Excel,Word,PDF) The OE removes
them. How can I get this changed back to where I recieve
attachments?

1. Start Outlook Express.
2. On the Tools menu, click Options.
3. Click the Security tab, click to clear the "Do not allow attachments to be
saved or opened that could potentially be a virus" check box under
Virus Protection, and then click OK.
