Get rid of Norton and don't replace it with McAfee. They both cause nothing
but headaches with OE.

I suggest AVG Free:

or:

When prompted, choose Custom Installation and *uncheck* e-mail scanning when
you see the option.

Norton, and McAfee, products are not Outlook Express friendly, and I don't
know of any OE-MVP that would recommend using them.

To remove Norton completely:

Commonly used Symantec tools:

I cannot receive email from my mail server in OE. I acted on all
suggestions, including turning off my email scanning. And what do you
know?
Norton AV software turns it on again, so of course I'm still not receiving
my
email. What do I do so Norton AV can't turn on the email scanning once
I've
disabled it? Thanks for any suggestions.
