.exe file rejected
Hi,
When I attach an .exe file to an E-mail sent to a friend, he reports that he cannot open it in Outlook Express. Is there something he has enabled which could have this result? Andy I.

You could try ZIPping it first. He could try going to Tools | Options | Security and unchecking "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus". -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM http://www.fjsmjs.com Answer in newsgroup.

Sorry to be so vague. I'll try to find out. : Andy I. Got the answer to that one, Frank: He has never seen an .exe attachment before. I find it difficult to conduct an "interrogation" with my friend "at a distance". I guess you have to know the right questions to ask. I don't know how you MVP's do it, or have the patience.... You deserve a medal. The final outcome of this one is that he now tells me he can now open ( I mean execute....) the .exe file. How, he doesn't know... All's well that ends well. Thanks. Andy I.
