Quotecan you just not remove the programme ??
Folks, I got a real problem here. I stupidly signed up (since cancelled) to a crowd called Spam Arrest to cut down on junk email. I already have Norton, Spybot, Spyblaster. Since I dallied with Spam Arrest - I have got no email and I'm expecting a message from my godson who has just just arrived in China. I also receive daily stuff from The Guardian, Reuters, eBay, Amazon etc etc. All of this has just GONE/NADA/NOWT/NIL/NOTHING. Can any of you good folks help me get back to where I was was?? Please make it simple - we're talking monkey at the controls of a 747, if you know what I mean. Really would appreciate anyone's help. Thanks. SirHamish
can you just not remove the programme ??
save the sheep shaggers bring back beheadings for waherford
Sorry Exile, how do I do that??? Remember the monkey/747 bit!! I do appreciate your reply, though and any help would be really appreciated. I've tried the tools etc bit but I just cannot figure out this reconfigure thingy.
Go to- My computer (on your desktop)... Click add or remove programs, look for the program you want to get rid of.. Should bring you through it..
I cant be sure what the problem is from here man, maybe try mail support@outlook-express-backup.com from a personal email account..
I am not familiar with this particular software but some of these 'e-mail washers' intercept all your message and require you to set up 'Authorised or Verified' e-mail addresses, i.e those e-mail addresses from which you are happy to accept messages. (You can normally set up the entire contents of your personal address book in one go).Originally Posted by sirhamish
Thanks M@ttitude and Exile, did that M@ttitude but after clicking on send/receive in Outlook Express still cannot get any emails. I'm now totally confused. I'm sorry to be such a pain in the ass and appreciate your patience but did my dalliance with Spam Arrest wipe out any emails due to come? I'm at a loss what to do right now.
If you do not do this you will not see any e-mails in your 'Inbox'. However, many of these 'e-mail washers' will have a folder or a function called 'Unauthorised' or 'Unverified' and all your 'unauthorised/unverifed' e-mails can be read from there. (Look down the left hand side of the screen)
I assume this programme is either a 'trial period' or you have signed up for a subscription' These programmes usually have a cancellation function which you activate by sending an automated e-mail.
I am not sure if this is any use but good luck!

I don't you will be able to get any useful info from anyone here unless you provide more info.
I would recommend Mozilla Thunderbird as alternative to Outlook Express. When you download it will automatically copy across all your Outlook express settings.
One final suggestion from me. Have you tried to read your e-mails from your ISP's website, a facility which most ISP's have to allow you to read your e-mails from anywhere.Thanks Superhoops and thanks Pete. I did check Spam Arrest for unverified etc and got zero, if you know what I mean. I presume that means no messages have entered their system. Jeez, why could I have not left well enough alone. I'm really sorry to bother you guys about all this but I'll keep trying until I sort it out. All advice gladly appreciated. If any of you blokes are ever down this way, by the way, call in and have a drink on me, lads, you deserve it. Muchos gratias, amigos. Oh, I'll check Mozilla Thunderbird as well but I'm afraid that I've dug a hole and am still digging. What the hell.

lads can you set up outlook express for any e mail address because i have a campus ome andid like to set it up
soccer isn't a matter of life or death its more important than that!!!
Thanks Fair Play Boy, but is there a slag tucked in there soemwhere? If so, I deserve it!!!!! To be honest, I'm utterly baffled by a lot of this computer technology - it's a big achievement for me to even use the basic Foot.ie functions but I make the very best of two brain cells I've got. Cheers.
Sir Hamish, how is it going now ??
Are you getting alot of spam to say that you are installing all those programmes to try and cleanup ??
What is Spam Arrest ?
What Operating System are you using ? If Windows
Do the following .... Start - Run - Type in "Outlook.exe /cleanviews" and hit OK
I'd also go to Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Cleanup
Wait for it to load (if it takes a bit, that is half the problem) and have a look at the really big folders, make sure you have a tick in Temp files and Temp Internet files, and Compressed files (all of these are in your cache and you dont need them) then hit OK, it'll sort it out.
Also ... look at setting up "Rules" for Outlook
Go to Start - Run - Type in "msconfig" and hit OK
Go to the last tab "Startup" and uncheck everything, hit apply and OK, it'll ask you to restart, and go for it. When it starts up you'll get a pop-up box, put a tick in it and hit OK
System Restore is a good place for viruses and other nasties to store files they need .... maybe look at dumping some of that AFTER you back up what you need.
You can backup you mail from Outlook to a .pst file (double check that) and cleanup, you can bring in back in later on.
Hop that helps !!

Replace IE as browser with Firefox (freebie) if want to pretty much eliminate browser spam.
Fair play Boy is right, your posts are hilarious in a good wayThanks a millions A Face, I managed to solve the problem by restoring the computer settings to pre Spam Arrest settings - hoped I explained that right. I've got all my emails and one from Spam Arrest saying that any they had they would send on.
I have all the usuals - Norton, Spybot etc. I was looking for another anti-spam system and found 4 eg Net Nanny etc. Spam Arrest was one that looked ok. Basically they absorb emails for you, dump the siht into a file for 7 days and delete it - they then inform the senders that this has happened. I thought that was a neat idea because if I get any more adverts for viagra, condos in Los Angeles and internet gambling, I'll fcuk this machine into the fire!
I's love to be able to put up websites into posts, like you guys do, as it would cut down on my long paragraphs. I think that's got something to do with pasting. Right, I've got the glue, sharp new scissors and paper!! What next????? Thanks a bunch A Face and all above - ye're the best!
to post websites click the 'insert hyperlink' symbol above enhanced mode, the symbol is just to the right of the bold/italic/underline symbols when you post. it is an earth with a paperclip. click on that you'll get a box come up in that type text which links to the website like 'see here' or 'click here' etc
ok that another box comes up, with this one, copy and paste the url into this box http://www.blahblah.....
then ok, that should work
hope it makes sense, i don't explain things very well
Not at all, Kerrs Tribe, you explained it very well. I've a Canadian TV programme in my Favourites colums which I want to link over to the thread I started on Michael Moore. I'll give it a go now and get back to you soon - about 6 months!!!
By the way, that boyfriend of yours might not be too happy with you conversing with an apprentice prevert - remember the other posts a while back. On that note, I've got that raincoat. Next on the shopping list are stillettos, eye-patch, whip and fishnet stockings and I'll be set up!!!!!!!!!! Cheers and good vibes, young wan!!
That link didnt work!

Sweet FA as far as I know!Thanks Pete, I'll do that. Just a question, in the past week or so, I've been moved from new signing to apprentice to youth team. What does that mean and how is it worked out. Just curious. Cheers, man.
No sh!t, Sherlock!That link didnt work!
