I can't open my attachments. Message reads "OE removed
access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail".
Any unsafe attachments have been repaired by Norton and I
have downloaded all upgrades for Microsoft and yet I still
cannot open my attachments. Help me.

Tools-Options-security for the 120,000th time........

this newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003(beta) from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
 
I've seen this before in Outlook Express 6. You have to go
into the tools / options and select the security tab. You
must de-select the "do not allow attachments to be saved
or opened that could potentially be a virus."
 
Open Options in OE Tools on menu, Security tab, and
remove check by Do not allow attachments... etc. Make
sure your Virus Checker is up to date!
