Hello
I have a problem and would like to see if you have some
insite.
The other day I allowed another client use of my PC and
after the fact nothing obvious was appearent..until now.
While I am typing this post I am having to do it from
separate machine instead of my own due to the fact that
whenever I try to post or post a reply to one of the
newsgroups the post window Blows Up...it just flat will
not stay opened as before?
I have played with every setting I can think of to get
this to work again but now I am to the point of pulling my
hair out.
I know this might sound stupid, but is there a way to
totally uninstall IE....doing it from the Add/Remove
Windows Componets...does not work.
Or...could there be a setting I am missing?

Hi Clayton :-)

Your identity may be damaged. Try creating a new identity, add your
account(s) to it and if all works well, you can import your messages from
the problem identity, then delete it at some later date. when all seems
well, use file>import to get your mail from the old ID into the new ID
before deleting the old.

If still no joy, then do a repair of IE instead of a reinstall. Since you
didn't state what version of Windows you have, I will try to provide the
information as best I can on the proper procedures:

Hi
Just an FYI, I do not use Outlook or Outlook express and
you reference leads me to think you are refering to one of
those apps?
I am running Win XP Pro sp2 with IE6.
I will reapply sp2 to see where I stand after....thanks
