msimn.exe - A Networking Element?
Occassionally, I use OE for mail service... but very rarely. I reformated my
disc recently and have reinstalled most programs. I just noticed when attempting to use OE 6.0, my firewall gives me this message: "Outlook Express from your computer wants to send UDP datagram to localhost (location)." The program is at c:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe." The computer is on a LAN. Is it safe to make this message in such a way as to automatically grant permission or should it always be blocked? What is it?
