Can hotmail users help me please ??
I asked my friend to send me something, and he sent it to me, as an
email attachment.
Now the problem is in Hotmail.
Hotmail has decided to BLOCK that attachment with the excuse of
"Windows Live Hotmail has blocked some attachments in this mail
because they appear unsafe."
C'mon, whether it's safe or unsafe, let the user be the one who
decides !!!
Why in the world Hotmail becomes the master of the users?
Can anyone please tell me how to UN-block that attachment??
I really need that attachment !!!
If it's unsafe, I have antivirus / anti-trojan / anti-spyware
installed to use against it.
Please, please tell me HOW to unblock the attachment currently being
blocked by Hotmail !!!
Thank you all !!!

File size is about 1MB, it's an old fractal freeware that the author
has already abandoned. My friend has a copy, so I asked him to send it
over, and now this ....
Geeeeeeshhhhh....

.exe
The thing is that only NOW that I know hotmail deletes _ALL_ .exe file
attachments. The matter is this ... when I sign up for Hotmail, there
wasn't any mention of the "prohibited file extension" thing in the
"contract" at the sign-up page at all.
Shhhhhheeeeeeehhhhhh !!!
Other than Hotmail, do you know of any other webmail operator(s) also
do this thing? I wouldn't sign up the hotmail account if I knew of the
"prohibition list".

Contract ?
Sorry if you didn't see this line.
20. WE MAKE NO WARRANTY.
We provide the service "as-is," "with all faults" and "as available."
