From the Tech Trenches: Outlook Express is removing attachments.
By Aaron Ledger, ACD.net
The subject for this article is something near and dear to all of our hearts: Email Attachments! It seems that a lot of you are receiving emails with attached pictures and jokes from love ones. However, when you go to open them in Outlook Express all you get is a nasty error message! Don't fret, it is supposed to do that.
You see the new version of Outlook Express is designed to protect you from viruses. Since a lot of viruses are sent as attachments your Outlook Express is configured just to remove any attachment that looks suspicious. So how do you see all of those pictures of the new grand kids? Well if you select tools, from the top or your Outlook Express screen, and then click on options; you will see a tab labeled security. Under this tab is a selection that says "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus." If this is checked then you will not be able to open attachments. Simply click on the box to remove the check mark and you should be able to view the attachments without anymore error messages!
