• Cannot click on URLs in Windows Mail.

  After installing Windows Security Essentials (Vista) can't click on URLs in emails from Windows Mail. Get error message saying Windows cannot find the URL and the browser does not open. Forum Microsoft says that it is a problem with antivirus software. Should I change the window Security Essentials?

  MSE makes no changes, or it doesn't block the URLS in emails. It is a setting of security in the e-mail program or the URL handler to the OS (open with) level.

  What operating system?

  Prior security software?

  No matter what security software installed again?

  A possible reason for this problem is that you have installed entirely or partially on the PC security software conflict. Remove all other computer security software.
  You may need to use a cleaning tool to remove your prior security software:

• Cannot open JPG attachments in Windows mail and outlook express

  Original title: I am running XP and windows 7.  On topic dec 15 times windows '7' mail and outlook 'XP' Explorer both started allowing not parts attached JPG to come or let them out.  Any help please? Dewey

  Whenever I get messages with windows mail or outlook express, all attachments of JPG will not come through.  I can change the security setting to allow dangerous files and they will come through.  I don't know what happened to two computers at the same time.  I had not changed all the parameter before it began.

  OE can not block the attachments to be sent.  You set antivirus software to analyze mail?  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  You get an error message?

• cannot print the document from Windows Mail, get a script error

  When I try to print an electronic document of Windows Mail, I get the following error message:

  -An error has occurred in the script on this page

  -Line: 2115

  -Char: 1

  -Error: unexpected call to method or property access

  -Code: 0

  -url://ieframe.dll/preview.js

  Hello

  1. are you able to print other documents?

  2 have had any changes made to your computer before this problem?

  Try the reinstatement of OLE controls to correct the above error.

  Method 1: register the OLE control
  To do:
  1. click Start and type regsvr32 ole32.dll in the search field.
  2. press enter.

  Check if this helps you to print from Windows Live Mail. This usually solves the problem. If you are still having the same problem, follow the remaining steps.

  Method 2: disable the script debugger

  1. in the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
  2. on the Advanced tab , click on to clear display of each box script error notification, and then click OK.

  Method 3: Verify that Active Scripting, ActiveX, and Java are not blocked by Internet Explorer

  Active scripting, ActiveX, and Java are all involved in shaping the way information displays on a Web page. If they are blocked on your computer, it can disrupt the display of the Web page. Reset the Internet Explorer security settings to ensure that they are not blocked. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. start Internet Explorer.
  2. on the Tools menu, click on Internet Options.
  3. in the Internet Options dialog box, click the Security tab.
  4. click on default.
  5. click on OK.

  Note: ActiveX controls and Java programs are disabled in the high security level in Internet Explorer.

  Try to open a Web page where you previously received a script error. If you do not receive the error, the problem is resolved. If the problem persists, go to method 4.

  Method 4: remove all temporary files related to Internet

  1. start Internet Explorer.
  2. in the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
  3. click on the general tab.
  4. under browsing history, click deleteand when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
  5. in the dialog box delete browsing history , under Temporary Internet files, click delete filesand when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
  6. under Cookies, click delete Cookies, and when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
  7. under history, click delete history, and when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
  8. click on closeand then click OK to close the Internet Options dialog box.

  If all goes well, you should be able to print now.

  Hi Steve... We have McAfee Security and we have always had. It was only last week we had problems with Windows mail... :( Should update us do you think? BTW, the server is ok that I am able to retrieve messages on the site from servers...

  ----------------

  The SMTP server and the Web site are not the same.

  This problem could have been caused by a recent update from McAfee?
  Try disabling electronic e-mail scanning in McAfee following the instructions here.

  Mail scanning is unnecessary and purely aesthetic.

• Cannot set default printer in Windows Vista.

  Hello
  My computer still works fine until lately something's happened to Windows Vista all of a sudden. One day I put on the computer and found that the left side of the menu 'start' all deleted, and the content on the right side of the Panel is still there. But then I found that I cannot print a document PDF and Excel, and the error message reads: "Before you print a document, you must install a printer." I have a HP Color laser printer connected to it since and it still works well. I can always print Word document (unless I have to manually select HP printer each time the dialog box I have ever had to do before), but cannot print PDF or Excel. On the 'control panel', the HP printer icon is still there, but it is not set as default printer, as it has always been. And when I tried to set up as a default printer, the error message reads: "can't set default printer.

  Can anyone help? Thank you very much.

  I would like to begin uninstalling the printer, restart and reinstall the printer to determine if that solves the problem...

• Error: The installer cannot set Windows XP required configuration information during the upgrade to Windows XP Home SP3 of Windows XP Pro.

  Original title: OEM Windows XP Home SP3 update XP Pro

  Here is a compilation of the messages from another forum regarding
  My problem:
  ---------------------------------------------------------------

  I'm trying to upgrade a Windows XP Home Sp3 OEM system to
  Windows XP Pro. (There are a few Pro features
  that are not available in the House I now need: (1) the files offline and
  (2) an add-on available for free to Onenote 2007, Top2onenote, requires a Pro).
  I don't want a clean install, but an upgrade. I bought a Windows XP Pro
  Upgrade CD on Ebay that was Windows XP Pro
  Gold (v2002). I'm sure that's true for the following reasons:

  It has been listed as an upgrade, but the CD is not labeled "Upgrade".
  It seems very authentic with all Microsoft holography.
  He came in the standard package of Windows XP (without box),
  and it was sealed.
  The name of volume for the CD is WXPFPP_EN. The Internet,.
  It is the retail of Windows XP Pro RTM (gold)!

  Here are things I tried initially.

  (1) I tried to upgrade to Pro from the purchased CD. It is immediately
  has refused to upgrade indicating the upgrade OS (Pro) is older than the
  installed OS (home)...

  (2) I read about "slipstreaming". "Slipstreaming" allows to integrate
  a service pack with an earlier version of the operating system. I created a
  upgrade XP Pro SP3 with Nlite slipstreamed CD image (and
  Autostreamer later, but it made no difference) from the purchased CD
  and a file containing SP3.

  After you burn the CD and start the upgrade
  (Windows installation), the upgrade process
  product through "information collection."
  "Dynamic update" and "Preparation of Installation" with
  no problems. My computer restarted and returned to
  "Installation preparation". A progress bar called 'Progress '.
  quickly filled to about 90% and the hanging system
  at that time there for about 15 minutes.
  Then, I got the following error message:

  Setup cannot set the required Windows XP configuration
  information. This indicates an internal Setup error.

  This is where I am stuck. I had to leave the installation at this point.
  My drive is starts raining and I had to restore a backup.

  (3) just for the heck of it, I formatted my hard drive and
  reinstalled my original OEM XP Home SP3 OS (no clean up, no user file).
  I immediately used my XP CD slipstreamed Pro to try one
  upgrade to XP Pro and IT WORKED! I need to find out why the
  properly clean XP Home OS upgraded to XP Pro but my pre-existing
  (with the files users, drivers, etc..) XP Home OS does not level
  successfully to XP Pro.
  -------------------------------------------------------------

  Another post:

  Yet once, today, I installed a new copy of OEM Windows XP Home Sp3.
  I continue with installation of all the essential and the add-on
  pilots (essentially all my original version). Then, I
  set up a network connection and firewall. With this configuration,.
  I ran the Pro XP slipstreamed SP3 CD. The upgrade to XP Pro
  success (even if the upgrade not configured my graphics
  card properly). I guess my current problem is either the registry,
  the WINDOWS, some user file or parameter file.
  ---------------------------------------------------------------

  Another post:

  I made a file and the backup of the folder C:\Windows folder
  on my system that is pre-existing (OEM XP Home Sp3). I also did a
  separate the backup the State of the 'system' on my pre-existing system.
  These are added my full image backup of her pre-existing
  system a month ago.

  I did a backup image of my system (minimum fees OEM XP Home
  SP3 with all the original installed drivers over a network configured
  connection and a firewall configured). This system will upgrade
  XP Pro with XP Pro SP3 slipstreamed CD successfully.

  Experiment 1:

  I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the C:/Windows folder
  and the State of the pre-existing system backup system. A startup
  has managed (with a minor irritant). I had to activate Windows.
  Then, I tried upgrading the slipstreamed XP Pro processor. He stopped
  at the same place during the upgrade and gave the same error as before:

  Setup cannot set the required configuration information Windows XP.
  This indicates an internal Setup error.

  Experiment 2:

  I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the system state only
  the backup of the pre-existing system. After startup I was asked to
  activate Windows, but answer Yes to the question would be to disconnect me
  the system. I couldn't get connected to try the XP Pro upgrade.

  Experience 3:

  I've restored my minimum system. I then restored only the C:/Windows
  the backup of the pre-existing system folder. Once again, as in experiment 1,
  the upgrade failed at the same place with the same error message.

  ----------------------------------------------------------------

  Before the experiment 3, I hoped that 3 experience would succeed so I
  could conclude that I had a registry problem. I'm not sure now.
  I don't know what to try next. Take the minimum system and reinstalling
  my files of the user is not an option that my hard drive has over 200 GB of
  programs! If I restore all files and folders of my pre-existing
  I would still have backup to restore a system state the reliable (read the registry).
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------

  Sorry for the length! If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate your responses.

  Thank you

• Problems of Windows Mail after you set up Sky email on Android phone

  I had an account of Windows Messaging for many years. Computer uses Vista. My email account is with Sky.

  I just bought a phone Android (Samsung Galaxy S 2) and to allow emails sync with this I enabled IMAP in my sky email account, then made a new account in Windows Mail IMAP settings.

  The problem is that 10000 emails sent & received since 2008 trying to download. I continue to also invited to enter my username and password when I don't know the account entry is correct.

  Finally, when in Windows Mail, I see now 2 lost records, a related probably to my previous account POP (still alive but not by default) and the other put my new IMAP account (and by default).

  Can someone help me configure things properly? All I want is a set of folders in Windows Mail, and not that there are 10000 emails!

  Anyone knows if I can talk to a human being in this regard if necessary?

  Thank you

  Well, I did some research and was able to set up an IMAP account on my domain server.  There are some good instructions here: http://help.seattleserver.com/imap-setup-outlook-express that is specific to its installation, but you can see which screens, you will need to complete your details and options.

  With respect to the 10000 emails, I suggest that you perform the following steps at the server level, which is to move messages from the Inbox to a folder created by the user.  Then in OE, go to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | IMAP and uncheck the option to check messages in all folders.  When you synchronize it can ignore the folders created by the user rather then synchronize with it.

  See if that helps any.

• Help... How can I set up my e-mail account using Windows Mail...

  someone would be kind enough to guide me through the set up of my windows mail... ?

  Hello

  This should help you.

  Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider); They provide your broadband / dial connection.

  They have the information you need to set your e-mail account

  Ask them to:

  1. your username with them

  2. your password with them.

  3 Incoming Mail Server POP3.

  4. name of the outgoing SMTP server

  All the information you need comes from them, not Microsoft.

  It's the Microsoft guide to set up Windows Mail, after that you have the correct information to:
