I'm not sure what is causing that error. Someone else is having it without
IE7 installed, so it may be unrelated.

Can you format the font using the format toolbar in the message window
instead of using Format | Font? When you get the error, are the font names
loaded in the dialog box behind the error window?

Hi again Steve,
I just re-checked the IE and OE default and they stayed as I changed them
in
the Microsoft, but in the Custom they do not stay in IE and OE default,
after
I click OK the change scan takes place but when I go check that Custom,
the
IE and OE check I made are returned to the other "default settings". I
don't
know if this will help you. Thanks again.

Go to Control Panel | Add / Remove Programs | Set Program Access and

In an auto Windows Updates IE 7 was installed, not good, un-installed
IE
7,
now in my OE when I want to change the color of the fonts when I write
an
e-mail and right click and Fonts I get this message: "An error occured
in
this dialog. Error 501
Permission denied."
I just installed the new Windows Auto Updates, minus IE 7 and I still
get
this 501 error.
What can I do to fix this problem. Thank you for your time.
