• Why Outlook Express continue to send the same message over & above without removing it from the "Outbox".

  It just started doing this morning... I had Outlook Express for YEARS!

  You have apparent dbx file corruption.

  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

  General precautions for Outlook Express:

  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
  http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

  Note that for some AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck analysis when the option is the result of e-mail messages.

  Compact often as specified above.

  And backup often.

  Same as above, nothing had changed and unable to use what whatsoever.
  Uninstalled all the above recent updates.
  The machine works again instantly.
  Open Firefox to access forum, he reported problems with the last session on this site and so I started a new session.
  Everything works well and fast.

  If I look at 'review your update history'
  All the updates mentioned above are presented as successfully installed twice.
  If I look at "the new updates are available," all the installed and then uninstalled updates are listed.

  So before I try to install the updates listed above again, what known problems are there regarding their.
  Why do you have the "check updates insist I had not installed?"
  Why updates has not asked to restart the computer?
  Why install the updates above make it impossible to use any programs?

• Update continues to send the same updates. Can not turn it off.

  Update continues to send the same three updates. I have install and the update comes with the same
  updates.

  Go to windows update and disable the updates that you have already downloaded, if they managed before.  And then on the update contained a right click on it and select Hide update and this should get rid of your problem.  It is a Microsoft problem they are working on but it won't work you will always receive other updates, but not those that you have hidden.
