Help with Outlook Express

[Geordie Joiner]

I am currently using Outlook Express for email and running it with Wanadoo. Every time I turm the computer off my POP setting defalts to a series of numbers. So that each time I log on I get an error and the computer asks for a login and password. Each time I reset it by changing the setting to pop.wanadoo.co.uk I am able to receive and send mail until I turn off the computer. Can anyone please assist with this?

Thanks

Geordie

Geordie,

I can't understand why anything should change your settings and certainly not your ISP unless it is a special edition of OE. Possibly you have a Trojan and it is worth checking for this with a reputable program like WebRoot Spysweeper or TrojanHunter. I also suggest you try Thunderbird, it is a better mail client than OE IMHO. It will import settings and mailboxes from OE if you wish.

where are you changing the setting? in the 'Options' menu or actually on the 'error' screen?

I'd also recoomend Thunderbird
