I recently switched to XP Pro and now im having problems getting attactments in my email. I dont know know if it has anything to do with the OS, I wouldnt think it would, but the problem never happend before I switched. When ever someone sends me an email with an attachment, the note area that contains the attachment name says "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail: *****
:upset:
I dont have a clue what OE is but im sick of it removing access to my attachments. Does anyone have any idea what this could be? Thanks in advance.

Microsoft's answer to viruses coming attached in email. You need to use an exchange server to get rid of the problem. If you don't have one handy

you might have to resort to using an old version of Outlook Express.

Ya, there is a setting in OE to stop it from doing this.
Tools/Options/Security/ ... then Uncheck "Don not allow attatchments to be saved"
I think this should fix your problem.
