I am using Windows Live Mail for my email accounts but just recently I have not been able to send any mail. I can receive them ok but not send. I get a message sayng "this message may contain afile that is dangerous to your computer. Please check your email security settings." I have no idea what this means or how to fix it.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

No he's not! (ChuckFickens is our techie expert!)

The message referred to in your question more usually occurs when receiving files. However it's possible that the solution might be along the same lines:
Go to Menus > Safety Options and click on the Security tab.
For a 'receiving' problem you'd need to remove the tick next to "Do not allow attachment to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus". Perhaps there's something similar related to sending? (I'm fumbling in the dark here, 'cos I don't actually use Widows Live Mail).

Hoping this helps,
