Opening Attachments

[Christine]

Using Windows 7 and Outlook 2003 on a brand-new computer. Each time I want
to open an attachment, it has a box asking if I want to be asked (obviously
so a harmful document is not opened). The box "do not ask me this question
again" already has a checkmark in it, but it is lightened in color and
nothing that I can choose. How do I ensure that I can open documents without
being asked this question each and every time I try to open an attachment?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

If this computer used at home or in an office? If the latter, it may be that
the option is not modifiable by policy.
