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

New computer with Windows 7 and IE 8. It came with Windows Live for email, but I would prefer to use Outlook Express. Is this possible?
Thank you
Outlook Express was last used in XP and it all production ceased in June 2006. In addition, he has never been a standalone download of OE.
If you have Win7 Pro, enterprise or ultimate edition, you can install XP Mode and use Outlook Express.

I updated the software on my desktop and connected my Bold 9700 to my computer. He asked me my device password, but it does not accept it. I am tempted to 8/10 and I know that I will have problems if I keep trying. I unplugged my bb, but he is always anxious to a password and he accepts not.
Also the password on my bb is showing me the characters rather than astericks, I type in.
I don't know what is happening and I don't want to lose all my data. Help!
I found the answer. I had entered the wrong password and do not realize it. Sorry if I waster your time to read this.

Windows Media Player permission to run under Vista 64-bit
How to change the setting for a specific program so that it will run under Vista 64-bit without asking permission every time as the permission? For some reason any of all the pre-installed software that came with my computer, only Windows Media Player asks me permission every time I try to run it from the desktop icon.
Remove icons from desktop and quicklaunch and created new file programs. Problem solved.
Thank you

Thank youHello Blessed15221,
Windows Mail is actually installed. If you have installed Windows Live essential, without disabling all applications, chances are that Windows Mail has been installed.

My Windows Mail (which I had for a few years) now suddenly refuses to 'Spell checker' and says ' this language (English) is no longer available for spell checking?
Nobody knows anything about this; or how to fix this? I think it is ridiculous for the English language is no longer offered or supported for spell checking. Could be some kind of hack-job or malicious hacking?
Easy fix.This language is no longer available for spell checking. Please select another in the Spelling Options dialog.
Change it back.
1. in the main window of Windows Mail, click Tools
2. the options
3 spelling
4. choose a language except English
5. apply
6. choose English
7. apply -
That makes me MAD! Windows Mail - checking the user name and password &!
It makes me crazy.For the last few days my Windows Mail keeps asking for my username and password and even if they are correct it still doesn't and comes repeatedly asks me for the info again and again. I deleted the account mail twice now and re added it but it still does not work. I can send emails but not receive. I have McAfee but I aiinstalle only this yesterday so that isn't the problem. the error message is:-
Account: 'mail.talktalk.net', server: 'mail.talktalk.net', Protocol: POP3, server response: '-ERR Authentication failed.', Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Server error: 0x800CCC90, error number: 0x800CCC92Please help I need to retrieve my emails! Thanks, Sarah
McAfee is a huge problem with Windows Mail. See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 if you want to use, wait until you get the job of Winmail.
Check if you can connect webmail and that works very well and it's not a problem on the end of the server messaging or because of misspelled powers. Then delete your account in WinMail, compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and make sure that you have disabled the e-mail analysis then add your account to mail back again and see if it works.

Hello
If your Web host/ISP e-mail allows using IMAP rather than POP is probably the easiest way.
http://www.upperhost.com/pop3imap.htm
Check with them if they take in IMAP support and how to configure your e-mail client (Windows Mail) accordingly.
