Hi All I have a new beef with Outlook. I sent myself an exe file from work to home. Outlook informs me that it will not allow me to view or open com, exe or bat files. Is there no way round this. I'm using 2003 beta. I have gone to security and tried to lower levels in the zone settings as described in help. The zone settings always go back to high and won't remain on medium or anything else after clicking reset or ok. I'm not even sure if lowering security levels (if eventually I figure out how to do it) is the way to view the file I sent myself. Can anything be done or is this another reason for me to want to stop using Microsoft e-mail programs? If I sound peeved it's because of my resentment of having any software company trying to decide for me how to set up and work MY computer.
