Using the newest version of Windows Live Messenger, every time someone
transfers a file to me, and I click on the link to the finished product
inside the messenger window, I get a message stating that windows has blocked
the file, because it is potentially harmful. After that, the file is
completely deleted. This seems to be happening only with Windows Live
messenger, and occurs with everything, but image files. I've had to resort to
having the files uploaded to a web server to download them from there. is
there a way to disable this feature, so that i can receive these files
without having to go through all this?
 
have whoever is sending them compress them first.
I don't believe Vista blocks .zip files
