ECN Forum Forums Technical Discussion Re: Computers and the Internet email removes wanted attachment...........grrrrr

This happened as part of an update to Outlook Express. Microsoft did this to try to quell the spread of certain viruses.

To get your attachments back go to the TOOLS drop menu in Outlook Express, select OPTIONS, and then click the tab titled SECURITY. Then remove the checkmark from the box that reads "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus". Then click APPLY and OK, and you are done.
