If you ran the setup disk to discover issues it will have told you that you would need to re-install outlook after upgrading. Just put the disk in and re-install outlook good luck

this also happens if your internet connection is made to abc.com but your mail account is with xyz.com. Most ISP's insist you use their connection to utilise their SMTP server. Nobody cares about POP3 as that is only for receiving. This can happen if your internet dial-up has defaulted to the...

jks373: There is a virus that causes this - you DO have some recently updated AV don't you. If worst comes to worst take out HD ands scan on a protected system - you may find (if it is a virus) that your BIOS is eaten and you need to get a new mobo. This happened to a customer of mine last...

Which version of IE you running? Do you have all service packs installed for SBS? Have you changed anything recently - just before you noticed the odd behaviour? Do you have Norton set to scan all files (if I remember, you can tell it scan on open, move, copy etc). try disabling Norton...

Could be... of course you have latest anti-virus defs and a firewall - right? Just checked mine and I have nothing like this... SP3 is now available of course...

It really could be a dirty CD-Rom lens - run a wet cleaner and give it a try... are they original CD's or CDR copies? many older players cannot cope with CDR's.

You could also check that you haven't plugged into an "uplink port" with it set to uplink. oops!

Of course, no-one has asked the spec of your system yet... what processor do you run on this server? how much RAM? If it's a pentium 350 I wouldn't be surprised that it uses up 100%

You could always download O&O software's excellent O&O defrag v2 which has scheduling built in (including boot-time defrag for your pagefile and registry) - which is free. I got mine with PC-Pro free last year but I can't find it quickly on the web atm. It's better (and quicker) than w2k defrag.

Trust me.... Take off ME - Reformat (in fact do a low-level and write the disk to zeroes), throw ME in the bin (and set fire to the bin) Do a clean install of 2k without even a shred of ME to be seen anywhere. (oh, and put the fire out in the bin)

HA HA HA HA HA HA I See, you mean it's ILLEGAL PIRATED SOFTWARE...! That's why it don't have what you need HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

click on folders>compact all folders this can sometimes help. You sure its OE and not outlook? Outlook can do this if you have web folders set up cos the update emails go into the inbox and then vanish as they get used but can still appear in the list.

I guess if this is 42mb you have it on a CD? If so copy it to the desktop of the new machine and make sure its properties are not set to "read only" Import it from there.
