Using XP, OE 6, My IEP is AT&T
Upon opening OE, message at lower right says messages are being loaded. I get the musical sound saying it is completed yet there is no new email in the Inbox or in Spamkiller (McAfee). I also checked blocked mail and the webmail under my server AT&T which was empty (both the inbox and trash). What else should I be checking to find what was downloaded? Thanks |

Disable Spamkiller and see if the problem persists. Outlook Express does not
work well with Norton or McAfee AV programs, as well as spam programs, and Spamkiller probably tops the list. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "BarbaraMN" wrote in message ...

Do you have a suggestion as to what I could replace OE and McAfee with...and
how I would do that? Thanks for your earlier reply. "N. Miller" wrote in message ...

Your ISP is "AT&T Worldnet", which is a completely different animal from my AT&T ("at&t Yahoo! HSI"). This is unfortunate because I have no experience with AT&T Worldnet. I am with Bruce on this one. Lose McAfee. Anything McAfee is more trouble than it is worth. I also gave up on MS Outlook Express as my primary email client because it is too weak in the filter rules department. -- Norman ~Shine, bright morning light, ~now in the air the spring is coming. ~Sweet, blowing wind, ~singing down the hills and valleys. |

Simply download one of these, (I use Avast), and remove McAfee via the
Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. I would suggest either Avast, (freeware), or NOD32, (not free). In the case of Avast, choose Custom Installation and under Resident Protection, uncheck: Internet Mail and Outlook/Exchange.
