Re: 1.44
Morning Stefan Tanurkov, The problem is that a single "stupid" user on a single machine (i.e. without administrator) should not have easy access to this feature. Okay, but what about the average "knows what he is doing" user (like me) I'm educated enough to know what attachments I can open safely and what is potentially dangerous. Still, I wouldn't regularly search the registry for new entrys that might turn off some annoying confirmation boxes. I do believe these settings should at least be documented, otherwise it is not more than security through obscurity and nothing but annoying for anyone savvy. -- ..

Hi Nick On Fri, 26 May 2000 11:33:47 -0500GMT (which was 26/05/2000, 18:33 +0100GMT for me), you wrote: ND One other thing I noticed, and perhaps this is getting picky, but ND upon doing a refilter there is no way to NOT include filters marked ND manual (unless of course you make them inactive first).

Morning Stefan Tanurkov, [*] Warning on opening attachments. This is rather annoying. I know I can use the shift key to avoid it, but how can you totally disable it?
