IE7 and Outlook Express
 

I have installed Beta2 of Internet Explorer on my machine and have come
across an issue with Outlook Express. I use Outlook Express as a fat client
for my Hotmail account. After installing IE7 everytime I access my mail in
Outlook Express or switch between folders (in Outlook Express) I am prompted
for credentials. When I am prompted, I simply click OK becuase my username
and password is correct on the auth window. I HAVE selected to remember my
password in OE. I believe that this is an IE7 related issue becuase I did
not have this problem before I installed the product.

Thanks in advance.

Uninstall the Beta unless you enjoy having to to a clean install. If you
want what IE 7 has and more, get Firefox.

Same thing here.
De-installing IE7 and going to Firefox is NOT an option. Anyone with a
solution gets my hat off.

LOL! Yes, it is an option, just not one you want to consider. If you
play with a BETA, you get the effects of playing with a BETA so post
your whining to the IE7 BETA newsgroup. This is an Outlook Express
newsgroup and most people here don't play with IE7.

I am confident a solution to this issue exists from Microsoft.

Since IE 7 will be released for Windows XP (i.e. for use with Outlook
Express 6) Microsoft WILL support this type of situation future. It is my
hope that they have encountered this issue to date an have found some sort of
solution at this stage in the devlopment cycle.

(To alias' comment: Yes, I realize that that this is the OE 6 newsgroup and
that IE 7 is in beta. However, newsgroups exist to share information with
the community. Another user (Sherwood Anderson) checked this newsgroup in
troubleshooting the same issue and as a result believe that my post is
applicable an in line with the stated purpose of the newsgroup. If you don't
like that...well...don't use the newsgroup!)

You're off topic. You will have more luck if you post this to an IE7
BETA newsgroup.

I hope the computer you have installed this unfinished software on isn't
your work computer ...

I use OE for some things.

if you are a firefox user,

I even use IE for other things.

why
don't you have thunder bird?

I have Mozilla Mail that I use for yet other things like newsgroups.
Haven't gotten round to downloading Thunderbird.

Would you like to know what else I have on my computer or is this enough

You might try going to Start | Program access and defaults and set OE as

How could that possibly be, since we were told emphatically that OE is
different from IE, and IE has nothing to do with OE.

Might be a bug in the recent builds (IE7 B2P is 5296 but I saw same behavior

Then again, might be related to availability of Hotmail in Vista RTM. (...)

I can get my Hotmail in 5296, but only by checking manually. If I set it to

I know someone that had a "non valid" copy of XP Pro and installed IE7,
Hotmail would then not work. It kept asking for the password. They
searched and found the update file "WindowsXP-KB904942-v2-x86-ENU.exe"
and ran it. Now Hotmail works fine. Sorry I don't know the link to it.
But it is out there. I was told it is part of the updates you get if
you [could] run windows update, but not being valid they could not get
it the normal way.

They had tried everything, but this worked. If MS thinks you have a
"bootleg" copy of XP (for some reason) you can get the file some place
other than MS, and run just this one file.
