Windows mail and runs under Vista, recently started asking passwords for e-mail accounts, I had defined for the years

I have several e-mail accounts defined in Windows Mail (WM). In 2008, I created these accounts and WM has never had any problems email from their recovery. A few days earlier, a "Windows Security" pop-up appeared asking me to "Please verify that the user name and the password are correct for your mail server." I enter the user name and password and let the box 'Remember my references' checked. WM then recovers successfully by e-mail of this provider. I repeat this process to enter email ID and their password for each e-mail and WM account gets successfully mail from them all. Subsequent recoveries automatic email (that occur every 20 minutes as specified via 'Tools', 'Options' and ' check for new messages every xx minute (s) ' in the 'Général' tab) run without problem until I restart WM. So I must return all identifiers and passwords.
I deleted the entry for one of the accounts, WM restarted and then recreated the account. Once more, it works fine until I restart WM, date on which the impulse begins again. It seems that WM has lost the ability to remember the ID and password between sessions.
Comments for similar problems indicate that McAfee antivirus can be the cause of the problem. I use BitDefender Antivirus. I don't see how my AV product could be the problem because once I re - enter usernames and passwords, everything works fine.

Thank you Gary, but I don't know why BitDefender or any other product of anti-virus (AV) would be a problem. As I said, once I entered the login details and passwords, I am able to send and receive mail several times without the prompt that appears until I restart Windows Mail (WM). I speculate here but I feel that the AV product would have not had invoked until there was the mail for her to analyze. This would not happen until AFTER WM was authenticated by the mail server, and then began to receive mail. The authentication command prompt was certainly appear BEFORE WM tried to contact different mail servers. I know this because I could see send/receive the WM status window, where it shows each email account and compares it to the coast after a successful login.

In any case, when I started this morning at WM, it worked well! The only thing I can think of that would have fixed this problem as if by magic is that I applied the following Vista hotfixes yesterday:

  • Windows malicious software removal tool - January 2011 (KB890830)
  • Update security for Windows Vista (KB2419640)
  • Update security for Windows Vista (KB2478935)
  • Update definition for Windows Defender - KB915597 (definition 1.95.3662.0)
Then I did the required reboot. I'm skeptical that these corrections have a direct effect on this problem because when I started at WM after the restart, he asked once more the ID and passwords. I did nothing with the AV product
The key here is that WM works very well this morning in the same environment as yesterday, except for the above mentioned fixes. I consider this problem in the past, but I do NOT know what caused his in the first place or what fixed it.
Thank you all for your help!
