| | Re: Preview handler surrogate host has stopped working This problem may be caused by interference from your antivirus program. Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or Norton security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled. After the offending antivirus is uninstalled, try editing Contacts. At your convenience, download and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html Gary VanderMolen "Martin" <Martin@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C9EF14E4-FB8A-4B23-8F6A-7F68C0B33F79@microsoft.com... > Hi, > > When I try to amend contact info in Windows mail I get an error message > saying: > > Preview handler surrogate host has stopped working > > Any ideas on how to rectify this problem would be much appreciated |

| | Re: Preview handler surrogate host has stopped working Office 2007 is fully compatible. The only other suggestion I can think of is to upgrade to a less buggy email program, WLM: http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas Gary VanderMolen "Martin" <Martin@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B3BB7F09-7EAC-4BEA-A23F-87A4C5A13F36@microsoft.com... > > Thanks for the reply.
