My Outlook Express just started giving me an error when trying to change the
Formatting of my Fonts when using the "FORMAT" tab at top.

Prior to this error message I tried downloading IE7 Beta but it wasn't
working properly so I removed the program and am back with IE6

If I change the size using the "format bar" (just above the contents of the
message) it works fine.
But if I try to use the commands in the toolbar area I get an error message
saying
an error has occurred in this dialog
error 501
permission denied.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks
Stu

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running outdated and much less secure versions of OE, IE and Windows. Check
in at Windows Update ASAP & install all critical updates offered. Any
better afterwards?
