I get this annoying Windows Security dialog box every few minutes or so
asking me to verify name and password. I have those already set up and
password box is checked.
It is driving me bonkers....How can I get rid of it? thanks

I also get this pop up but not is not accepting my user name and password so
now I am not able to get into my email. What can I do to change this? thanks.

Both you and "lockeym" need to find out which antivirus program
you are using. Some of those have the nasty habit of corrupting the
Windows Mail password store. Windows Mail is not compatible
with most McAfee and Norton security programs. Those will need to
be uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, reboot and check
to see if email is working. If not, delete that account, restart WM,
and re-create that email account because it is likely to have been
corrupted by the antivirus program.

At your convenience, download and install a more compatible
antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
