I've been looking at multiple advisements in a series for Q&A regarding the
ability to see a message in the reading pane, blank email when opening them,
and the AVG Integration w/ Outlook. However, the replies say 'fix AVG
Integration" but did not addess "HOW". I've searched and found nothing
specific in Outlook, or my virus software to do this. I can read the
original inbound message when I do a reply or forward. Problem started a
week ago when I attempted to open what was thought to be a word.doc, but
started opening Outlook Express... then dead-in-the-water.

I have:
* removed and reinstalled Office 2003 and Outlook, with reboots.
* opened McAfee and disabled 'live email protection', with reboots
* attempted multiple other options w/in Outlook, with reboots
* attempted restore, but cannot go back beyond my reinstall of Office-2003

NONE HAVE HAD ANY IMPACT...
Along with thses issues, I no longer get the auto-signature, appointments do
not work, and the reminder 'snooze' requires additional steps to enact
snooze.

WHAT NEXT? Please provide some How-To in addition to what responses.

You say *AVG* then talk about McAfee. AVG is also an anti-virus program.
Which is it? Or, do you mean *AV* as in anti-virus?

In most cases, simply turning off the email scanning is worthless; it
usually has already horked your system. You need to completely uninstall
McAfee, reboot, then do a custom reinstall of McAfee without any email or
office integration modules.

Better yet, do as so many have recommended countless times and get rid of
McAfee for something that will work better for you.

When reading thru the series of Q&A, it was not clear to me that AVG was a
separate software, and other individuals referenced McAfee in some of them.
Sounds like MS has problems with multiple anti-virus software packages. I
left Semantec a couple years ago as it did nto protect me, going to McAfee,
successfully, until this last week.

I'm working thru your advised soulution. thanks.

MS doesn't have the problem, the software companies do. It's been hashed
over and over in the MS newsgroups as to why, so I'm not going to repeat it.
