Can anyone explain how and why I get the "yellow" strip
across the top of some e-mails that states; OE removed
access to the following unsafe attachments in your
mail:Fwd_FW_Read adn Return (the picture is gorgeous).eml
How can I fix this problem if it is a problem. I have used
Outlook for years and upgraded to pro XP and now I get
this.
Thanks for any help.
 
hit forward, then save the attachment :)

It's a new security feature to prevent accidental opening of viruses, either
by yourself or scripting. you can disable it in tools | options | security,
but I think the extra effort to hit forward is safer and well worth the
extra click.
