unwanted files

[peet]

Hi,

I am sure that someone out thare will be able to help me.

Every day I get one or two e-mails sent to me with strange charaters as the
file names such as thick vertical lines , upside down and back to front
letters. ( is that spam ?)
( Somewhere my e-mail address got picked up )

If you get your cursor on these "file names" then Outlook Express bombs out
and you have to restart again. So you can't even delete or block them.


Any help in how to avoid getting this and what can be done.

Thanks for any help.

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.

You can also find some good Outlook Express information here:
