Your headers (Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.2180) tell us that you're
running outdated and much less-secure versions of OE, IE and WinXP SP2.
Check in at Windows Update ASAP and install all critical updates. See if
the behavior persists after installing the updates and rebooting.

Also make sure Automatic Updates is enabled.

Any ideas as to what may be the problem ?
