Useful Outlook Tips....


I know majority of us are using OUTLOOK as our way of communicating to other people for work related issues (well even non work related... I know someone in the office ü) and might have experienced a time wherein we accidentally unchecked the option to "always ask before opening this type of file" when we are about to open an email attachment.
To be honest, I am not that tech savvy and this freaked me out when I unchecked it. That means everytime that I have to open an attachment with the same file extension it will not prompt me anymore, this is dangerous since viruses are everywhere. So with the help of GOOGLE I chance upon this article wherein it identifies the step on how to revert the original settings for opening mail attachment, here it is:

1. Open the Control Panel Folder Options applet or open it from Tools -> Folder Options in any Explorer window.
2. Select the File Types tab.
3. Scroll down to the extension type that you want to reset.
4. Select the extension type, then click Advanced.
5. Check the “Confirm open after download” check box, then click OK.
6. Click Close to the Folder Options dialog box.

Happy Spamming.... lols
