Blocked attachments

[Lori]

I've just received an email with the following message:
Outlook blocked access to the following potentially
unsafe attachments: conference.mdb. Does anyone know
how to "unblock" this?

I would guess that you would have to unblock it from your
virus scanner software on your email server.

Depending on version check out

or add-in

yeah i spent forever on the ms website trying to find out how to do this in
Outlook 2002 and there is no answer. Sucks. I went over to OE and Eudora.

Look at MSKB 290497, this should help.

Look at the Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 290497, this
should help.

Why is it you can fix this problem in Outlook Express in security options -
but not in Outlook 2002? Why doesn't Microsoft come out with a patch or at
least a security add on for this? I read the article, but it still doesn't
answer me why a user should have to hack the registry to fix this. Seems
unsafe to me...
