You mean - "Outlook Express has removed access to the following unsafe attachments ?"

Tools, Options, Security Tab. There's a tick box about OE preventing access to files that might be viruses. Untick it or tick it whatever it is

Nah- it's a securtiy feature of Outlook that Microsoft implemented to stop emailed .exe files getting through.....

There is a patch, but it's a 3rd party on IIRC....

Any ideas?
