If all is working with the re-registration of inetcomm.dll as you indicated
it was, do nothing more at this time.
If at some future date, you need to rename inetcomm.dll, do a Search for it
and rename it when found. Then from the Start/Run line, run MSCONFIG and
use its "Expand File" button to extract a new copy of inetcomm.dll - but for
now, don't do anything.

As I mentioned in my last memo the first part of you email worked ok. I am
having trouble with the second part. I am getting down to the limit of my
computer knowledge. Where do I change the inetcomm.old also I cannot find
the
c:\windows\update setup files folder. or the mailnews.cab. I am afraid I
need
a little more detailed help.

If the error was with inetcomm.dll as you indicated in your reply to
Mike,
see this info:
First, try this:
Go to start/Run, and type regsvr32 inetcomm.dll and wait for a
notification
of completion. Then reboot and see if it's fixed.
If no help, then try replacing inetcomm.dll as it may be corrupted:
Try a rename of the existing inetcomm.dll to inetcomm.old and then
extract a
new copy from the mailnews.cab in your c:\windows update setup files
folder.
Extract the copy to your c:\windows\system folder. After that go to
Start/Run ~ type regsvr32 inetcomm.dll and wait for message of
completion.
Then reboot and see if the problem is fixed.

Jim I am not sure whay you mean by the Message Store, I do compact the
folders each week. As for checking I have been into the outlook express
site
and verified the downloads have been carried out. Also one other
suggestion
from the Microsoft page was make sure you have XP installed with SP2,
plus
all updates this has been done.

How long has it been since you compacted your message store folder?
How
large are the individual DBX files in your message store folder? It
sounds
like a problem with a message store folder that is corrupted.
You say you've confirmed various suggestions from web sites but give
us
no
clue as to what you may have done. Want to provide some added info so
that
we can perhaps be of more help?
