I use Incredimail. I have a friend who is an AOL user. She forwards quite a bit of e-mail to me with attachments. When I click on the attachment, Outlook Express opens and I received the following message: "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail:" This is quite frustrating and I am wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem and what they did to stop OE from interferring. Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Howdy:

Start OE and go to Tools>Options>Security

Now, change the virus protection from "Restricted" to "internet"..

Next, uncheck "Do Not Allow Attachments, etc...".. Apply and okay out.
