Thank you so much for pointing this out to me. Not all of us are the sharpest
pencil in the drawer and have the time to "get the latest and greatest". The
only time it becomes an issue is when something happens and we don't know
which way to jump. That's why there are these kind of great sites for
assistance. Again, Thanks Much!!!

Try *OE* (not IE) Tools Options Security Virus Protection ...

You're running outdated and much less-secure versions of OE, IE and Windows.
Get WinXP SP2 installed ASAP then check in at Windows Update to install
critical updates offered.

OE6 (6.00.2800.1807) This is on my laptop as I am using it since my
desktop
crashed. OE is blocking attachments to emails and any graphics that are a
part of the email. With OE open I have selected "tools" - "internet
options"
- "security tab" but I do not have an option to mark or unmark "to allow
attachments". I hope this makes my question clearer ???

I have reviewed the messages that explain, to some degree, the issue. I
am
confused as I follow the steps - tools - options - security tab - but I
don't have the same options as shown on the example. I can't uncheck an
option that I don't have on the screen. What to do next ????

YW, Dean & thanks for posting back.
