This is because of Microsoft's stupid attempt to keep people save, the only
way I know to fix it, is by a third party company.

If you go to www.mess.be and look for file extension unblocker, it'll say
restart msn so you do and your done :D

I would not say that it is a stupid attempt to keep people safe. Remember
that many folks SLAM Microsoft for being insecure...and this is a way of
helping keep people safe. Granted, they have to perform a few steps before
they can unsafe the system.
