   I'm using Outlook 2003 and I can't receive .exe files as well as several others.
   How can I have the Outlook pgm allow these types in.
   
   This is the message I get within the letter..
   
   Outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe attachements: Filename.exe.
   
   Help.

   I don't use Outlook, but I would think that there is an option under Security settings - as there is in Outlook Express, to allow file attachments with particular extensions.
   
   In OE the setting is 'Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus'.
   
   Edit: found this ....
