In recent weeks my Outlook Express has been displaying the statment, "OE removed access to the unsafe attachments in your mail:" This is stated near the top of the email. This was not occurring when I first started using Outlook Express, but occurs with frequent regularity now. Is there something wrong with my Outlook Express or is doing it's job?
 
Howdy:

Sounds like you upgraded to OE6..

It is doing what it is configured to do.. Start OE and go to Tools>Options>Security

Now, change the virus protection from "Restricted" to "Internet".. Then, uncheck the "Do not Allow Attachments, etc..).. Apply and okay out.
