Babs have sent you a pm xxhugxx

I use Outlook all the time at home (XP) and at work (2000) and there is no 'block' on it!! Lynne

Babs, which version of Windows do you have? and is it Outlook or Outlook Express?

Paul, I honestly don't know what you mean by ''blocked'', but you can still download it from the internet with IE.

Tracy no ;; no paperclip on the forward page;; and I have done right click send with att ,, that didnt work as well;;Paul only one I understand ;;dont say that !!

I use Outlook express all the time - never had any probs You've put the F.O.G into me now. Glynis

oh. I have 4 comps in my house and all of them have outlook blocked. They were allready blocked when we got em. Didnt see the point of putting outlook on there if it was blocked!!

Ok you want to attach something, open a new mail in box next to spelling there will be two little tiny arrows click on these and a little paperclip will appear click and off you go xxhugxx

Paul, XP puts a block on attachments to stop malicious ones infecting your PC. I haven't heard of any stopping the use of Outlook (normal or express). Using the internet does not prevent viruses. If you do not have an up-to-date virus scanner, you can still be infected.

i thought microsoft put it beyond use because loads of little virus and buggy program thingys kept stealing passwords and sent an e-mail through outlook direct to the virus creater. Its safer to send emails through webpages. Harder to steal passwords, and they cant auto send e-mails.

I didnt think u could use outlook anymore. It was too unsafe when it comes to password stealing programs.

There should be a paperclip at the top of your email which allows you to add attachments. Is that there?

Can anyone tell me how to send on a e-mail with a attachment to it have tried twice with jno luck;;??? thanks Babs
