How can I disable compacting of emails, I'm some lose every time I compact.

You can't turn it off, and if you could, you would lose all your messages eventually. You can have a file corruption, and I would advise to create a new identity.

You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identity | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact

About file Corruption:
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

Compacting your folders periodically is a must to keep OE works fine and at some point, you may lose all your saved messages if you do not. When you delete or move messages, the space they used remains until you compact.

Never touch anything until the compression is finished.* *.

See:
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

With SP2, Automatic compaction in the background has been removed because of problems he has caused. Now, you will get a prompt to compact after 100 closures of OE, you need to do, and do not touch anything until it's finished. If you compact manually, at your convenience, this will also set the counter to zero. See this for more information:
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm#compact

If you are fully patched, you will now see a copy of your dbx files copied to the Recycle Bin as BAK files. If something goes wrong when compacting, the messages can be easily restored from this backup. A compact manual resets also the counter in the back of the registry to zero now.

For more information, see the information framed in red here:
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

To keep things running smooth and harden faster:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. It will eventually become corrupt and you may lose mail. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

And backup often.

  • How can I disable my password email Yahoo memory of Firefox. Since then, it has been hacked last week.

    Some time ago I let Firefox remember my Yahoo mail username and password. Last week, someone has hacked my Yahoo e-mail account and used my list of e-mail addresses to send lots of spam bad for them. I changed my Yahoo password, but now, just for security reasons, I want to have this empty password every time I log in. How do I toggle the memory of Firefox OFF so that it doesn't remember my new name of Yahoo and the password? I'd rather save that name and password in me in the future.

    Click on the orange button Firefox, go to Options | Options | Security.

    Click the saved passwords , and then click Show passwords in the following menu. Delete it in there.
