attachments being zipped

This is very odd. I have not upgraded anything. I'm on WindowsXP with
Outlook2002. I do have the Outlokk 2002 Atachment Security Customization
setup but it's been in place for more than a year. Suddenly when I send PDF
files they're arriving at the other end zipped! I'm not doing it. AND it
happens even if it's only ONE file, not a group. How is this happening? Is
there somewhere to turn it off? The only possible thing I can think of is
that I did upgrade my Norton System Works recently from 2002 to 2004. But
I'm not finding anything in the Anti-Virus that would be doing that. I will
post there as well. But I think it's in Outlook.

Thanks for any insights.

PS: I've already checked in Tools/Options/Security and do NOT have anything
there checked (not even encrypty conetns & attachments for outgoing
messages). I've never even gotten a digital ID. Just thought I'd add that
because I'm sure it would be the first comment.

Thanks,
Sheila
 
You probably have a add-in installed as Outlook can't do this natively. Any
file compressing software installed that integrates with Outlook?

Thanks. You got me thinking. It wasn't the Norton Anti-Virus but the other
program I'd recently upgraded. I upgraded my QuickView Plus when I got the
laptop and it had it configured to zip files over a certain size. I'd never
even seen that feature in my old version! GEEZZZZ! Glad I found it. Thanks
so much.

Thank you so much for this. We were having the exact same frustrating problem. We looked everywhere for a solution, and finally this was it. THANKS!!
