Can't get Windows mail to work

[Guest]

Called ISP (time warner)- and they said to uninstall firewall?

New computer, Windows mail worked when I first put in the information.

Installed AVG anti-virus, now it doesn't work. I used AVG previously with
Outlook and Outlook express without issue.

I also have McAfee on this machine, but haven't activated it yet. It might
be active - but I haven't registered.

Anyone else have this issue? Webmail is annoying.
Thanks,
Pam

I also had problems with MacAfee (preinstalled with a new Dell PC). The
software was incompatible. As soon as as I uninstalled and reinstalled new
AV software the problems went away. is your problem with e-mail or internet
speed?

My problem is getting the mail - it won't come through on Windows mail.

I will go ahead and try uninstalling the AVG and then reinstall.
thanks

Uninstall McAfee. Uninstall AVG, then reinstall it using the custom option
NOT to install the mail scanning module.

It seems that a lot of people are having a similar problem including me. I
cured mine by following instructions found at the microsoft web site. Its
easy to follow and it may cure your problem by checking and replacing any
corrupted system files. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212/en-us
