I only need one identity in my OE. I named it with my name. But when I close
OE and re-open it, a new identity, 'Profil1' comes up and automatically
opens all new emails. I delete it, but it keeps comimg back. So I deleted
'My name' identity, and changed 'Profil1' to 'My name'. New 'Profil1' comes
up. So I always have two identities. It's very annoing.

You suggested it may be a problem with anti-spam program, so I uninstalled
it. No, it didn't help.

How do I get rid of 'Profil1' poping up? Can I move emails from one identity
to another? I could then stay with Profil1 but don't want to loose all data
in 'My name'

Thank you

Did you change the Identity name *after* you uninstalled the anti-spam program?
Did you also disable the email scan in your anti-virus program? It is NOT
Outlook Express that is changing the name. It is some other program.

After you verify there is no email scanning in any other program, use my
ForceID script to remove the settings in the registry for the default and
last-used Identity. In the Identity dialogue, make whatever changes you need
and see if they then stay.

I don't know. You'll have to poke around in that program's options.

Are you using any anti-spam program?
If so, what?

No, I had SPAMfighter, but uninstalled it to check if it creates the
problem. No anti-spam now.
I have Avira Anti-Vir PE Classic, but can't find where to swich of the email
scanning.

Thank you for your interest,
Izabela

I had SPYWAREfighter, but uninstalled it to check if it created the problem.
I don't have any of the applications you have listed. I am using Avira Anti
Vir PE Classic, but can't find how to swich off email scanning in it.
But now, when I think of it, I do have some left over of a BullGuard, which
was improperly uninstalled some time ago. I will check it out and be back.
Thank you

You had both SPAMfighter and SPYWAREfighter installed? I wouldn't be
surprised if they caused even worse problems.

Start by disabling AntiVir's email scanning and see how things are.

I tried and tried, and couldn't find how to do it. No wonder! It turned out
Avira AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic doesn't have a MailGuard so I can't
switch it off!

What next?
Izabela - an avarage computer user who doesn't know about not installing a
spyware and spam protection at the same time :-)
