Hi Peter, I also have a laptop with Vista and IE has been doing this since I got it. I would find all kinds of hints and "fixes", none of which worked. I finally installed Firefox as my browser and no problems at all now. It was very frustrating.

Mine started doing the same thing AFTER I downloaded IE 8. My screens would freeze and I'd have to "end task" to get out of Internet. Loading images was waaaaay slow. I have XP and with IE7 had no problems. I've also been using Firefox since downloading IE8. However, I've had no problems this past week with IE8. So....don't know what's been fixed.

Good Morning, I have just been reading "Tips From A Computer" guy and he suggests using a KeyScrambler. Do any of you use this kind of software. I use a good Virus software and also a Firewall and keep them updated. Is it necessary to worry about using a KeyScrambler? Just wondering. Yvonne

Are you connected to the internet on your laptop? Does internet explorer work? I use windows mail and have never had a problem.

I guess I'm not explaining this very well, but I appreciate everyone's time and suggestions.

Duh !! Of course the Docking was eliminated when I added my old (paid) Reg. Code !! Sorry to have bothered the list :-( Thanks Vanessa for clearing the cobwebs out of my head :-) == Also you asked: "If I move to another email program, such as Thunderbird, can I import my Eudora mailboxes?" Vanessa I tried Thunderbird a couple of years ago and couldn't find a way -- maybe someone has an answer. Dale

Forgive me, but can you tell me, please, what is "windows mail"?

Greetings In Thunderbird -- go to tools -- import is an option. click on import -- it asks what to import -- click mail. listed is several programs -- Eudora is on the list. This should work.

If you can't configure your email account in Outlook, you will almost certainly have exactly the same problem with any other email software. What kind of problem are you having?

I think you are stuck. I also have Eudora 7.1.0.9 and I have the same thing. Where the Eudora logo is is where the ad for the free version used to be. I recently learned that, apparently, Eudora is now not being updated or supported. This begs a second question. If I move to another email program, such as Thunderbird, can I import my Eudora mailboxes?

I had to change to a different computer. I downloaded and installed a new Eudora 7.1.0.9 program (WIN XP). I am now having a problem with an inch and a half blank margin on the left side (with an Eudora logo). I can increase its horizontal width, but can only reduce it to about 1.5 inches. I can drag it to the right, but then it sets on the right hand 1.5 in. I can drag to the bottom, but still have the wasted space. If I right click it is asks: "Allow docking?: with no way to NOT allow docking. Any suggestions to fix this? Thanks. Dale in Holt, Michigan USA

It is the mail program that comes with Vista. -----Original Message----- From: computers-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:computers-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Diana Gale Matthiesen Sent: Saturday, September 05, 2009 6:39 PM To: computers@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [COMPUTERS] E-mail program Forgive me, but can you tell me, please, what is "windows mail"?

If you don't want to print the whole web page, your only option is to copy the part you want and paste it into some other program. The most obvious choice would be your wordprocessor.

I set up my account and it won't download my mail. It is not Outlook it is windows mail. I have Outlook on a computer with win XP and it works fine. I have set my email accounts up just as my ISP says and the mail program won't download my email.

Hi Barbra, Well... That's what I mean... Paste into your word processing program and print. Optionally, you can re-format before printing. I do this all the time. Regards, Kevin.

Thanks for the suggestions but I don't want to copy it into anything--just want to print it out so I can read it from hard copy. Thanks, anyway.

I have a laptop with vista and windows mail I have tried everything to configure my e-mail but it doesn't work. Are there any good free e-mail programs that are like outlook?
