Vista - Turn off windows mail

10-13-2008

By thinking that someone would use the software inherent in the operating system shows I, A supertech, that they don't know what the BLEEP they are typing about.

I, like anyone, enjoy traveling. I have an online email system to keep beasts off my system. I have investments that I would like to keep an eye on.

I'm not trying to "set up" a computer everywhere I go with accounts, In or out POP servers, Ip address or all the trouble that comes with setting MS software

You like talking to yourself, too?

I'm not sure exactly what problem you are experiencing, but you may find
that some anti-virus programs are responsible for launching mail and IM's in
order to "monitor" them, and you have to turn off their monitoring of those
apps to stop the AV from launching them. This isn't an OS feature.

I run Windows Mail, or Windows Live mail, only as needed, and it does not
behave in the manner I think you describe.
