Outlook Express Again

[James]

I don`t know why, but on Outlook Express when emailing somone, then
click send, it disconnects
from the internet. The box "Hang-up after Sending and Receiving" is
unchecked, but I still get knocked off the internet. Any idea why?

Check the computer for viruses and other malware. See "Computer
Viruses: Description, Prevention, and Recovery"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=129972) and download Ad-aware
(http://www.lavasoft.com) to check your system.

If it disconnects *before* sending your mail, uncheck "Always connect to
this account using:" in Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties (after
selecting the account) | Connection.
