    Default Outlook Express 6

    Just changed to WinXP. Whenever I receive mail with an
    attachment, I receive the following message:
    "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in
    your mail"

    The attachments are from trusted sources. How can I
    remove the message so I can read the attachment?

    Hi,
    From OE, select menu Tools | Options. On the Security tab, uncheck 'Do not
    allow attachments to be saved or opened...' and click OK.

    HTH.

    You've already been told how to disable the setting to fix this.
    I just wanted to add a comment: you can get a virus even from a
    trusted source. Even the closest of friends and relatives can get
    a virus and send it to you.

    When it comes to viruses, caution is much better than trust.
