Unable to Open Attachements in Outlook Express

[Jennifer]

Unable to open attachments in Outlook Express. I
understand that Microsoft automatically installed a
program to secure against viruses. How can these
attachments be opened????

Hit forward and access the attachment or disable it from tools, options,
security.

Where do you find the "forward" button you refer to. I am in the same predicament of unable to open attachments. Are you suggesting that we turn off the security feature "Do not allow attachments to be saved of opened that could potentially be a virus."

When you open a message, on the Toolbar at the top, where it says Send, Cut,
Undo etc etc is a button marked "Forward".

Doh!
