| | Re: Weird!! I think I may've cured it now, I went into accounts, Microsoft communities, properties & unchecked where I sign into windows live id, but I will look into your suggestion, Phil.

| | Re: Weird!! Sounds like you are talking about WLM instead of WM.

WM can't use a Live ID for anything. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) WM does use Live ID to sign into 'communities message rating features'. It adds the MVP Logo to our posts also. It IS the cause of the OP's problem! 'get headers' is a different problem, since it would / could reduce the number of posts downloaded on a physical visit to a newsgroup. The easiest way to disable 'communities message rating features' is via tools>options>general. I along with many other users, and MVP's who use WM, are seeing this problem. -- Regards Steve. MS-MVP.

| | Re: Weird!! I stand corrected. I've had that Communities feature disabled for so long (18 months) that I forgot it existed! I went to the settings location the OP mentioned, but there was nothing pertinent there. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) " mac" <macknever@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:OmLhPQ5%23IHA.1452@xxxxxx Quote: > > "Gary VanderMolen" <Gary@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:OWGe3X3%23IHA.3696@xxxxxx > > Sounds like you are talking about WLM instead of WM. > WM can't use a Live ID for anything. > -- > Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) > > > WM does use Live ID to sign into 'communities message rating features'.

| | Re: Weird!! The reason you haven't got the windows live id log in is you have unchecked the ratings option & that removed the relevant menu, I've just found that out myself Phil.
