Outlook 2000 SR-1 Email Security Update for Windows

Used Outlook 2000 SR-1 Email Security Update for Windows?

To use the Outlook 2000 SR-1 Email Security Update, you must have 'Office 2000 Service Release 1a (SR-1a)' installed, which will require access to your Office 2000 disks.

Developer’s Description

Protect your computer from malicious e-mail attachments.

Use this update to protect against viruses spread via attachments in e-mail. Once you install this update, you will not be able to access attachments with file types that could run executable code or change settings on a computer--actions that could allow a virus to spread.

This update contains a number of security upgrades: e-mail attachment security prevents users from accessing several file types when sent as email attachments, Object Model Guard prompts users with a dialog box when an external program attempts to access their Outlook Address Book or send e-mail on their behalf, which is how insidious viruses such as I Love You spread, Heightened Outlook default security settings increase the default Internet security zone setting within Outlook from 'Internet' to 'restricted sites'. In addition, active scripting within restricted sites is disabled by default

I tried 3 times to download it and it told me three times: The expected version of Microsoft office 2000 was not found on this System. You just plain don't have it.
Do *NOT* install this patch ... NEVER!!!

This is really bad. I made myself a custom Outlook script to block spammers. I installed the patch, now my script does not work anymore and I am flooded with spam ... GREAT! If you install this patch you will have to completely reinstall Outlook in order to get back to a normal world. If you installed Outlook as a part of Office, you will have to reinstall Office entirely.
I have always liked Cnet for its variety of downloadable programs.

Summary
Unlike Outlook Express which can allow users to select "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could be potentially virus", this new update from Microsoft doesn't implement this, unless u have a 3rd party software like 'Outlook Security Addin' (freeware) or the 'Xenos Outlook Security Extension'. Otherwise I am glad my collegues with the patch are guranteed protected from the W32.Mydoom.A@mm virus attacking wildly in our office PC, compared to those without the patch, still attacked by it (and causing Norton to pop up and freak them) Please implement such features also like the Outlook Express, Microsoft.
Arggghhhhhh!!! Gates, I hate you for allowing tosh like this to be produced.

Loosing your email attachments is bad enough, but not being able to uninstall is typical MS. The fix if you have SP3 does work though.
Oh my!

An example of lazy programming, with Microsoft opting for the quick-fix approach... I don't know about others but it removed zip attachments as well without any notification... pretty dodgey in my opinion.
