Why do I get a message such as “Outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe attachments?
To help protect your computer, Microsoft Office Outlook does not allow you to receive files of certain types (such as .exe files) as attachments, because of their potential for introducing a virus into your computer. Outlook blocks these files by default. If your organization uses Microsoft Exchange, only the e-mail server administrator can unblock these file types. End users of Outlook cannot unblock these file types.
