Recently, Microsoft Security updates to Outlook and Outlook Express have caused users to receive an "unsafe attachments" message (similar to the one below) when they try to open certain attachments in their e-mail, to help prevent virus and Malware problems.
Open Outlook Express and click on the TOOLS drop-down menu.
From that menu, click on OPTIONS.
A new window opens. Click on the SECURITY tab.
Under the VIRUS PROTECTION area, you will see that there is a checkmark in the setting "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus."
Remove the checkmark.
Click on the APPLY button at the bottom.
Click on the OK button.
You may need to close Outlook Express and re-open for the changes to take place.
