in reply to How do I get Outlook Express not to treat perl scripts as potential viruses

The only workaround I can think of is to zip them up and send and receive zip files instead of .pl/.pm files. I do not use Outlook or Outlook Express so I couldn't help you with the registry keys.

Update:
There seems to be some information here.

    One of the latest batches of updates doesn't allow Outlook or Outlook Express to save zip files either (but still allows MS Office files through, go figure).
