If you save the attachment, most Antivirus programs will scan it as it opens or saves...
Bob
I am using Windows ME and outlook express 6. I have OE set to not let me open or save any attachments that can be potentially harmful however I make it a point to "NEVER" open attachments. Sometimes I get an e-mail with an attachment from a friend that I'd really like to open but I won't because shes really a newbie on the computer and Im not sure whether she's updating her virus definitions although I told her how.
My question is how can I scan the e-mail attachment without opening it? I think I know how but am not sure.
Thanks
Nancy
