Hi Graham,

They way I've got around this is just to add another file extension to the
end of the file name.  It seems to be .exe and .zip files it doesn't like.
Obviously, the recipient then needs to remove the extra file extension.

Subject: [access-uk] using windows messenger


Hi all.

Aftter a bit of playing around I have stopped using MSN messenger and gone
back to Windows messenger.  On the whole I find MSN Messenger slows down
the PC and windows messenger does all I want with the exception of letting
me know when I have new mail in my hotmail account.
However, Windows Messenger blocks sending and receiving of certain file
types it considers dangerous.  I have looked for a fix for this on the net
but found nothing so far.

Anyone any ideas?

Cheers
