Hi Nanci,

1) Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT

2) Then navigate to this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\5.0\Block Senders

Where the {8A067580........} number is the GUID for the identity that you're
using (it will be different on your machine).

3) Right click on the Block Senders subkey and select Export. In the Save
As dialog, give the file a name and save it to the same folder the
restore_blcksend.vbs file is in. You're exporting this branch as a backup.

4) Expand the Block Senders branch and right click on the Mail subkey and
select Export. In the Save As dialog, give the file MAIL.REG as the name
and save it to the same folder the restore_blcksend.vbs file is in. In the
Save as type: pull down, select 9x/NT4, or the script won't work.

5) Right click on the News subkey and select Export. In the Save As dialog,
give the file NEWS.REG as the name and save it to the same folder the
restore_blcksend.vbs file is in. In the Save as type: pull down, select
9x/NT4, or the script won't work.

6) Double click the restore_blcksend.vbs file.

7) The script will prompt you when finished.

Note: In the event that the script cannot find MAIL.REG or NEWS.REG it will
error out. Both MAIL.REG and NEWS.REG must be present. Additionally, if
you neglect to choose 9x/NT4 as the type of REG file, it will error out.
