In recent months millions of machines have been infected with viruses transmitted through e-mail attachments like Melissa, I Love You, Love Bug and AnnaKournikova. These viruses and many others like them have already caused a tremendous damage on computers all over the world - and who knows what new surprises are in those fresh mails waiting in the in-box? Ashampoo Mail Virus Blocker provides effective protection against viruses transmitted through mail attachments.
Ashampoo Mail Virus Blocker identifies and blocks potentially dangerous attachments before they are received by the user's e-mail program. Depending on the settings, Ashampoo Mail Virus Blocker will either delete the mail containing the attachment or it will rename the attachments. Renaming attachments makes them harmless, because it is then no longer possible to execute them by clicking on them.
Ashampoo Mail Virus Blocker is designed primarily for use with Microsoft OutlookŪ Express. However, it can also be used with any other e-mail client that allows configuration of the necessary settings, including all versions of Microsoft OutlookŪ. In Microsoft OutlookŪ XP/2002 the program also makes it possible to receive Level 1 attachments by renaming them before they are received by the mail client. (Some users find it annoying that the Outlook XP/2002 blocks these attachments without providing an option for letting them through.)
Limitations: Nag screen on startup, blocks 3 scripts.
