Outlook XP ... dont get it

Winters · 2002-05-06 20:55:02

Anyone else use outlook XP and notice how any weblinks or well..anything you get sent to you is stopped from being viewed. This has to be the worst Outlook yet. I'd advise people not to get it :rolleyes:

I would consider this a saftey feature

But seriously , this can be turned off if you want. It applies to all .exe,.doc,.xls etc all types that can carry active scripts which can infect your system.. I have been hit about 20 times over the last week with the klez and I use Outlook XP.. and it doesnt even get a chance to run ..

Outlook Express comes with XP OS. Outlook XP is the fully fleged (including calender:)) version that you can get with Office XP for only $300 more bucks.
