:Thanks guys, I have installed both the Java and the ActiveX (both were
missing) but it hasn't soved the problem. I also notice that I can't click
on reply to any emails that contain graphics or a colored background. It
just times out before it is sent.
Also when log into my photobucket account I get the page o.k but in the
middle I get a small version of the internet explorer "file not found' page
