Default Security Options Question

Hi Everyone,

I have a general question about setting security options in OE6.

In Options - Security, there's a choice for downloaded images (Block images
and other external content in HTML email). What is the actual point or
advantage in checking this? If a person keeps their security software
up-to-date and knows not to click on links or open attachments in emails from
unknown senders, is that not enough? What is the actual risk or danger of
clearing this option?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

--- Gary
