OutlookExpress filters files with certain extensions (like .ASP, .PDF, etc.),

[Fie Fie Niles]

I have OutlookExpress 6. When I receive files with certain extensions (like
..ASP, .PDF, etc.), it says "OE removed access to the following unsafe
attachments in your mail: filename.PDF". The file does not contain virus,
but it still filters any files with this extension and other extensions like
..ASP. This did not used to happen before, just start happening recently. How
can I fix this problem ? Thank you.
