Configure Outlook Express

Allows Administrators to enable and disable the ability for Outlook Express users to save or open attachments that can potentially contain a virus.

If you check the block attachments setting, users will be unable to open or save attachments that could potentially contain a virus. Users will not be able to disable the blocking of attachments in options.

If the block attachments setting is not checked, the user can specify to enable or disable the blocking of attachments in options.

Supported on: Only Internet Explorer 6.0
