Hi, You made me more curious about Control Panel. In Control Panel > View > List, I see listed on columns '... Java, Keyboard, Mail, Mouse, Network Connections ...'. When I stop with the mouse on 'Mail' option, the pop-up description shows 'Microsoft Office Outlook Profiles'. Is this different from normal or usual Control Panel? Yes, please, I would like specific instructions on using System Restore. I don't remember exactly when I did the mistake with Yahoo! program - I think it was about a couple of weeks ago.

From your description, it is not easy to determine whether the fault lies with registry entries specific to Outlook or some other process. If the modifications have been done recently, the best way to reverse them would be to reboot into Safe Mode and use System Restore to go back to a time before the problem started. If you would like specific instructions on doing this, just let us know. :) Peace, Gman http://www.bornagainamerican.org "The only dumb questions are the ones we fail to ask" ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stefan B" <spuse_scrise@xxxxxxxxx> To: "GuitarMan PCTT Mod Squad" <PCTechTalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, February 09, 2009 9:12 AM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Outlook - WinXP exclusive email program > > Hi, > I need help in a problem of e-mail.
