Seeing as you are someplace on the West Coast of the US? Very unlikely :-)
(I am in the UK).

http://www.pchell.com/virus/uninstallnorton.shtml
http://www.pchell.com/virus/uninstallmcafee.shtml

Get AVG Free to replace them:
http://free.grisoft.com/

When you install AVG, part way into the install you will see an option for
"custom" Install, use that, then disable the mail scan feature.

You may have to remove/rebuild your account once more.

That took a while :-)

I am out of ideas for now, someone else might be along who can help?

In the meantime get Windows Live Mail http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview
download and install

It will import all your mail and accounts etc from WM during install.

Let us know if you can send & receive mail from WLM.

Best of Luck.

When all else fails, you can always upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
