Microsoft has done it again. A few weeks ago I had to un-install Office because I was trying to apply a security patch which required Office SR-1a which I already had. Unfortunately the patch would not install thinking I did not have SR-1a and there was no way to force it. So I thought I would re-install SR-1a. That wouldn't install cause it said I already had SR-1a (make up your mind already MS) and once again there was no way to force it to install anyway. So it was off to un-install Office completely and re-install from scratch and then apply SR-1a and the patches. That seemed to work.
So today I'm trying to get to an attachment that was sent to me with a .bat extension. I get the nice message saying "outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe attachments". Well thats nice but I know they are safe so I should be able to get to them right. Well, according to MS, I'm wrong and they are always right. It seems I have no control over any of these security settings to enable MYSELF to get to a perfectly good attachment. I've been through about 20 different KB articles on how to rectify this none of which work. I've tried about 5 different registry entries to get by this. Still nothing. What am I to do??? Un-install and re-install again and be very careful not to install this specific security patch which I'll probably not be able to determine!!!
Wake up Microsoft!!!!!
