I keep getting messages that say that OE has detected an
unsafe email and has blocked the completion of the event.
This is really annoying because my son is running Norton
as am I and the OE keeps blocking attachments that have
come to his OE unscathed. Whats going on? How can I
diable this OE firewall ? Thanx
 
From within Outlook Express, click Tools|Security|Options. Un-check the
second checkbox from the top.

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.
