Recently I came to know of the Email Software Developed by Microsoft named “Windows Live Mail”. Its interface is very close to Outlook. You Must ask, What is the advantage of it. ?
Well, for Slandered Hotmail accounts, Microsoft has disabled the support with Outlook before 1-2 years. But having this software you can download & save all of your emails locally in your PC.
Bhai shaib, Its Windows Live Mail. Microsoft released windows 3.0 in late 80s.
Sorry, It was a writing mistake. However If you post your comments about this instead of correcting my mistake then it will be nice.
Probabally you are aware of the Example of a student painter, who made a picture & hanged on the busy street & wrote that correct its mistakes. Next day he saw his pictures full of corrections........then...:D
Forget what I said about world using it... that was statement from me, I had different query for you before I made that statement, apparently, you ignored it.

N A M E** one security hole... don't bs. I don't want to hear search this and search that... give me a specific "security hole" which resulted in network being down and/or sensitive data compromised BECAUSE of current version of outlook "security hole" that you boast about.
before you go on about how wrong I am. You might like to know my full time profession is in computer security.
The fact that Outlook does not taint input is bit of a biggy dont you think. Shares code with IE which is integral to the kernel as MS claims. Any code which may run via something like buffer overflow will run as SU. Hundreds of viruses been attacking outlook every year and yet you say name one.
First article is over 6 years old, it doesn't count.
Second article is about remote code execution... which software these days does not have such vulnerability? The big question is, was it patched and fixed or does it still exist in CURRENT version of outlook?
Do you use outlook?
If no, which client you use?
Viruses don't attack outlook lol, its more of the *CONTENT *of EMAILS that passes through outlook that causes problems. Install outlook on a system or even server and see what happens. Install outlook on a system and process 100s and 1000s of emails daily with attachments, spam and depending on how stupid you are, open some of those on the machine and then see what happens.
Current version of outlook is least of anybody's worries when it comes to "security holes" or network being compromised.
Hang on I am not here to show you exploits, you said show me one I did so.
CURRENT version of outlook has many flaws. Many are not disclosed. So you are saying the fact content can exploit crap code of outlook is not MS fault but the virus creators solely?
