Do you want to open this link? . . .

[FarmerBob]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Power PC
Email Client: pop

Well . . . of course I do or I wouldn't have clicked on it.

Is it possible to stop this message that pops up when you click on a link in an eMail and if so, how do you disable it? I realize that it is there for protection, but please don't insult my intelligence. I know the repercussions and would not click on the link if I did not want it to open. It is a willful action that needs no policing.

Usually a message like this has a check box that says "do not show this again" or a check box in the prefs to turn it off. And that is missing, why OR there is a prefs option that I was not able to find that will turn this off? If there is none, MS there needs to be one.

This is just another annoyance in 2008. 2004 was so much more user oriented and friendly. As per my staff.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you . . .

Anti-phishing features in Entourage 2008 cannot be disabled.

Please be sure to let Microsoft know you'd like to see this feature
altered in future versions by using the Help --> Send Feedback mechanism
in any Office application.
