Re: spell check halted

The easiest way to fix that is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail:

Re: spell check halted

You got the exact same error message in Windows Live Mail as you
did in Windows Mail?
Which antivirus are you using?

Re: spell check halted

Yes - the exact same message. I am using AVG free version - the same as I
astasrted with when I bought my computer with Vista. No change there.

Re: spell check halted

Chances are, AVG antivirus was installed with its default install option.
If so, uninstall it, then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which then
allows you to unselect installing its troublesome email scanning module.

While AVG is uninstalled, try Windows Mail again, just to verify that
the culprit has been found.
