All received mail is BLANK!

K

Kellie

I checked my email from work yesterday using my provider's online server
access....so I know there was a bunch of emails there.

This morning, when I opened Windows Live Mail on my home PC, I received 34
messages. EVERY ONE of them was completely blank.

No "from", no "to", no "subject", no "message" - NOTHING.

And when I check on my provider's online server, the emails from yesterday
are gone from there.

What is causing this? It started the other day - just the odd email here and
there, which I assumed was spam.

It has been 2 weeks or so since I installed Vista Service Pack 1.

Help!

That type of problem can be caused by interference from
a non-compatible antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus programs.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
