Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection and even Symantec says it's not necessary:

paste
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

Every time I open OE I get error 0x0800cccof. I'm having a problem
getting
email from my yahoo account. I just downloaded windows xp security
updates,
have checked that my mail servers are correctly configured, have updated
my
AV software. OE was running fine until I updated to IE 7. Now I have one
problem after another with it. There is the solution of reinstalling OE,
but I wanted to see if the community had any other solutions. Thank you.
