i think this is the case. recently i have had an influx of virus activity. norton catches them right away and crashes jaws. the work around for this is to have another window open and when you open outlook express alt tab back to that other window right away. if norton comes up and you have to deal with a virus, then thats whats going on. it took me half the day to figure that one out. wait until you get the email sound then alt tab into it. i have had to start doing this every day for the last week and a half and today is the first day i haven't had any viruses so maybe its finally slowing down. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul J Traynor" <pjtraynor@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2004 8:10 AM Subject: RE: jaws crashing when opening OE inbox > Is it possible you may have an email with a virus in it?.
