It seems that my OE has recently started to block access to video files that have been sent to me by trusted friends. I have played with it but can't figure out how to remove this nanny feature so I can enjoy these attachments. Any help would be appreciated.

Richy, open Outlook Express, click on tools, options, click on the "security" tab, and uncheck where it says "block attachments that may be potentially dangerous".

This should work for you:cheers:

Absolutely yes. It will also copy all of your contacts over as well as your server info. Nothing could be easier.
