I have two computers, my laptop and my Home machine. Both operate on XP and run Outlook for mail. It is set to check my home account and my Hotmaill account simutaniously.
A couple/few weeks ago my email went goofy on my laptop, it immediatly gives me an error when I push send/recieve I get "Access to account is denied" and some other stuff from the hotmail process and "the server name you entered can not be found on the network" and some other stuff. My other computer has the exact settings and works fine.
It gets worse. Now as of today my other computer is doing the exact same thing. But.. I did see out of the corner of my eye a little box on the bottom right down by the clock that "updates we're automatically installed" This may be a coincidence, but it was just before I tried my mail with no success.
Could it be a virus? How do I fix this?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Christo_pull_hair.gif
