879724 2010-04-25 03:25:00 Operating Windows XP, Word 2003. cannot open this attachment sent to my Outlook Express email. Now a message has appeared in outlook express saying outlook has prevented access to this unsafe attachment. dianne pierce (13385)
879725 2010-04-25 03:29:00 Do you know who its from? Speedy Gonzales (78)
879726 2010-04-25 03:32:00 Yes I do so it should be safe, I am thinking that they are not experienced in sending attachments so they could have possibly just sent a link to something on their computer. I can contact them and ask them to resend it in a diffent format but I thought I would check on here in case I wasn't using the right programme to open it. dianne pierce (13385)
879727 2010-04-25 03:34:00 Sounds like it. KarameaDave (15222)
879728 2010-04-25 03:35:00 okay I will contact them, thanks for the help once again dianne pierce (13385)
879729 2010-04-25 03:39:00 Follow this (support.microsoft.com)

1. Start Outlook Express.
2. On the Tools menu, click Options.
3. Click the Security tab, click to clear the Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus check box under Virus Protection, and then click OK.

879730 2010-04-25 04:09:00 Still 'no go" I saved it to my documents where it appeared as a folder containing family pictures but it still won't open. The folder did say it was a shortcut so obviously the person has sent the wrong thing. Thanks again for your advice. dianne pierce (13385)
