Emails sends by itself

Just bought a new laptop with Vista and I'm using Windows Mail. Sometimes in
the middle of typing an email it automatically sends by itself. I'm as
positive as I can be that I'm not accidentally hitting any key combinations
to cause this like, "alt+s. Can anybody help?

RE: Emails sends by itself

I don't suppose you have a n F key or similar that is assigned to send email?
I can't think of any other possibilities. Maybe you should take a
speed-typing class (a little humor). Good luck!

Re: Emails sends by itself

A recent version of the Trend antivirus program also causes assorted
problems in Windows Mail. I'd recommend antivirus programs known
not to cause such problems in Windows Mail, such as avast! or AVG,
either one with a custom install that tells it to leave out the part that
scans email. Avoid having more than one antivirus program installed
at a time, since that tends to cause problems.

The Norton and McAfee antivirus programs don't clean up properly
after an uninstall. You need to run the separate cleanup programs
offered for them:

<http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=107083&lc=4105&partner=McAfee&type=TS&ia=1>

Some spyware also causes problems, so I'd recommend installing both
of these antispyware programs and running a full scan with these also:

Re: Emails sends by itself

That sounds like you guys have a virus that have hit your computer..

It takes all your Contacts and sends them out random with an attached little
package..

If you have McAffee or Norton,, get a real Virus program to clean this up..

I'd recommend TrendMicro.. there's couple free programs also..

Re: Emails sends by itself

Doesn't sound like a Windows Mail problem. It probably is a
hardware or driver problem. If the computer is under warranty,
the repair service should fix it for free.
