PROBLEMS OPENING ATTACHMENTS IN OUTLOOK EXPRESS

Troubleshooting Outlook Express- Viewing attachments

Symptom
When you double-click an Internet shortcut in an Outlook Express e-mail message, your Web browser may not start or connect to the Web page.

Solution
The usual cause of this annoyance is a setting in Outlook Express 6 which is blocking you viewing attachments. To fix this problem:

  • Open Outlook Express
  • Click Tools on the top navigation bar
  • Click Options
  • Then click the Security tab.
  • Uncheck the box called Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened which could potentially be a virus
  • Click Apply and then
  • OK

If this does not fix the problem, there are a number of rare causes of this problem which can be viewed on the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
