Slovak Technical Services Attachment Options [Outlook Attachment Security Utility]

"Attachment Options is a COM add-in for Outlook 2000 SP3 or higher, Outlook 2002, and Outlook 2003 that provides a user interface for changing which file types are restricted as Level 1 attachments. Level 1 attachments are hidden by Outlook, and cannot be seen, saved or opened from Outlook items. Moving an attachment extension to Level 2 enables the user to see the attachment and to save it to the file system. The attachment saved to the file system can later be opened by the user."

Pretty cool. Installs as a COM addin to Outlook. On the Tools/Options menu, it adds a new tab to the dialog and allows you to change the security for given blocked/level 1 restricted extensions.

Doesn't totally open your system up. Just helps you "unhide" selected file extensions.

For example, if you receive Access databases, you will find that Outlook hides them from you. With this utility you can adjust Outlook so it will now show you the MDB attachment allowing you to now open or detach the MDB.
