| | Windows Mail... not Logged on as Administrator Hi... Windows Mail opens... sends/receives can read/write/delete email, etc. BUT... when closing down I get a strange message: Powered by SupportSoft You are not currently logged into your computer as an Administrator. This installer requires that the user be logged in as an Administrator. Please log out and log back in as an Administrator, and then restart the installer." I'm a user with administrator privileges. What is trying to install???? How do I get rid of this annoying popup every time when closing Windows Mail? Any ideas??? Need some help! Thanks in advance, Steve |

| | Re: Windows Mail... not Logged on as Administrator It sounds like you have installed some software from your ISP. That is always a big source of trouble. Uninstall your ISP software and you should be fine. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Steve" <abc12345@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:OtmsSaslJHA.2460@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi... > > Windows Mail opens... sends/receives can read/write/delete email, etc. > BUT... when closing down I get a strange message: > > Powered by SupportSoft > You are not currently logged into your computer as an Administrator. > This installer requires that the user be logged in as an > Administrator.
