Outlook Express Question

Hi Wiilem
Just a thought, but maybe the system has been set to leave messages on the server so the are not deleted after you download them.

Try renaming your topic to "OUTBACK Express Question" You may get more responses.

Hi Willem,
hope they give you an answer as mine is doing the same thing
My anti virus is picking up a virus as well but its not in the system.

Willem,
As a support professional the first thing I recomend you do is install the full Outlook client that comes with Microsoft Office. Outlook Express would have to be the worst, most problematic email client ever written.
The next step would be to log on to your email account using a web browser, if your ISP offers this functionality, and delete the suspect message that way.
Otherwise you'll have to wait till your ISP can do it for you.

Try "mymail.com"

Enter your relevant details and you can see what mail is in your box and also delete any you wish.

Cheers

Willem,
your email has been spamed. You have received an email with the 'netsky' virus. Run an update on your anti virus software or open it and down load a patch to fix. I been caught over 3 times in as many weeks.

It is the current crop of crap circulating through the net doing it - if you have telstra bigpond - go to telstra.com and log onto web mail - load in your user name and then your email password - you then have access to your emails via the net securely anywhere in the world and you can delete the offending emails quite easily there.

You can also craete and send etc

Cheers

Willem, sorry you have been having all this trouble. Just wanted to let you know that Andrew can't come out to play on the computer today because he is too busy with Pesty doing touristy things, playing on Big Red (easy-peasy), collecting all the yabbies in the pots, just going out again to get some more so the scrumptious dinner tonight. they've been to the Museum, information centre - we are trying to wear them out today so we can get to bed early tonight!
Was very impressed with the painting. The kids told me about it so I had to have a look. Someone said something about pigeon poop, but I thought it was entirely more profound than that. Showed great insight, depth of character, incredible meaning, profoundly moving - helpful if sitting on longdrop.

Glad you've fixed the problem.
Outlook Express ( like Win 98) is a curse.
See if your ISP will support other software, eg
http://mozilla.org/ (look at Thunderbird and Firefox).
