Getting unwanted message protection (preventing download)

Today, i am sharing you all of my problem as well as i solved that.
Outlook and Outlook Express have gone Big Brother on you, preventing you from downloading program files and other e-mail attachments. If you are facing problems something like this? So, what to do?

By default, recent version of Outlook block you from opening certain types of attachments including .exe and .vbs files, that are capable of infecting your PC with a virus or another intruder. To changethis setting in Outlook, select Tools>>Option>>Mail Setup>>send/receive>>Edit>>Download complete item including attchments. Another approach is to use the free Attchments Option utility; it gives you more granulat control, letting you specify which types of attachments should be allowed to download with the message.

If you are suffering the same restrictions in Outlook Express 6, the fix is simpler. Choose Tools>>Options>>Security and uncheck Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentiall be a virus.

Hope this article was helpful to you.
