>>That's how I'm setup now. I was hoping that you could use the rules to prevent the launching of of vbs, vbe, js, or jse attached file from Outlook. Or that if the security level wasn't set to High, that double clicking the file (in Outlook) would bring it up in notepad. Of course, if it were saved to the disk double clicking should still launch it (run it).

Those that are clearly acceptable will be sent along, and others will be destroyed (if obvious virus) or the recipient will be contacted to determine content. The process will be almost fully automated eventually, they hope.

>This is how all the viruses get in, of course, from outside, so I think it's a good approach. It all sounds pretty sensible, especially since it will mean getting WSH back to use.

No bad approach. IF it works. I will attempt to tell our people this. I say attempt because they dont take direction real well.
