Un-block Attachments When Antivirus in use

[Peter Kryszak]

Outlook should allow allow knowledgeable users with anti-virus to unblock
attachments

 

[Pat Garard]

G'Day Peter.....
......and your question is....
................How do I un-block attachments (I presume)?

Let's be charitable.....control of attachment blocking can be achieved
by installing the "Attachment & Security Options" addin that can be
downloaded
FREE at http://www.slovaktech.com/ - the web page also has a clear
description
of how to use it, so perhaps you might print a copy for reference.

Have a Happy Christmas and a Great New Year.

It does - see http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/getexe.htm for ways to
get the attachments off.

For more information on the security features, see
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup.htm

If you use OE, hit forward on a message or disable it in tools | options |
security.

Thanks, but I meant "... without hacking the registry or downloading programs
from websites that I don't if I can trust."

Slipstick, I've heard of and used in the past, Slovaktek I don't know.

I'll hack the registry.

Thanks for your replies.

Hi Pat - I've had this computer for 1 1/2 years and suddenly it won't let me
open most of my attachements in outlook. When I go to hotmail.com it still
does not let me open them, but it give me a yellow triangle ! notice that my
attchments and links have been blocked for safety. I am unable to open
ANY of them. Even if I try to right click, I don't get the option to
unblock, only the option to open, save, etc.

Can you help? Please! Thanks, Kristii

What types of attachments? Did you try disabling the outlook integration in
your antivirus software?
