To set security zones
In Outlook Express, security zones enable you to choose whether or not active content, such as ActiveX Controls and scripts, can be run from inside HTML e-mail messages. You can choose a moderate security level that allows most active content to run, or you can choose a more restrictive security level.
- On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Security tab.
- In the Security Zones section, choose an Internet Explorer security zone:
- Choose Internet zone for standard use. It is used by a majority of Outlook Express users.
- Choose Restricted sites zone to create a more secure environment.
Note
- You can adjust the security level of these and other zones in Internet Explorer. The security settings that you make in Internet Explorer also apply to Outlook Express. In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and then adjust your settings on the Security tab.
