Outlook 2007 Beta 2 - Calendar events with url link lost

[Guest]

I upgraded from Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2007 beta 2.
When I create a event I usually put a url bookmark to link to meeting or web
page. Now the Beta is saying "Outlook blocked access to the following
potentially unsafe attachments bookmark name url"
Anyone know how to turn this thing off!! What a pain Outlook 2003 had no
problem when I entered a bookmark.

Thanks

Why don't you just add the link to the appt instead of a bookmark file?

I'm adding the url link in the body of the event. You know where you type
information about the meeting it's directly under the End Time: field

If I open an appt, and add http://cnn.com in the notes field (that's
what you are referring to), then I can follow the hyperlink by pressing
ctrl while clicking it.
You should paste the actual address, not a bookmark item.

That is what I was doing in Outlook 2003 I think because all my links were
working fine. But when I upgrade to Outlook 2007 Beta 2 it's now allowing me
access. Not really sure how I entered it I usually drag it from internet
explorer or cut and paste link from internet explorer address bar. But I did
report it using Smily feedback.

Glad you reported it!

You need to change your attachment security registry value. See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/getexe.htm
