Ditto to that - I've almost reached the stage of leaving the PC on
overnight to download AVG updates because of the way it interferes with
running Outlook ... But that would go against all my usual practices!

WAISAD, AVG still beats the socks off Norton in my view!

Merry Crimbo to one and all BTW - at the end of today I am off for two
whole weeks now to move house and live out of boxes until I get some
wardrobes (aka closets for USA readers) installed!

Gene,

AVG is often quite slow in loading itself... I've certainly experienced it
slowing down Outlook's (2003) loading process. Interesting that this
happened to me even when AVG email scanning was turned off. Apparently, it
still loads the email scanning module even when it's not required... :-(

Regards

Nope its 2003 and if there is or was a update I have just let it update!
But you are probably right I bet it's the Firewall or AVG keeping it from
working?? It's funny one computer works just as it should this one must
wait? Guess its slow as I am maybe? But I also would think that AVG was
all ready loaded and the firewall also? But it must not be loading them in
the right order or something like that? It's not a big problem just should
do better  <g>

Thanks for the clue

Gene


Sounds like Outlook is trying to get the mail before it's fully made the
connection to the server.  I've seen this many times in older versions of
Outlook, but not in Outlook 2003....since you say "all updates", I'm
wondering if you mean Outlook 2002, since I don't think there ARE any
updates to 2003 yet...or are there?

If you have any third party software installed (including AV software or
anti-spam software that may have to load when you start Outlook), this
could be slowing down Outlook's launch and therefore it is out of sync
with the server...that's why it works if you wait a couple minutes and try
again
