Outlook Express

[craft1948]

Today for some reason a login box for my email (Outlook) keeps appearing asking me to login.
I never log out and this has never happened before, I just keep closing the request box and it disappears.
I seem to be receiving emails okay so why is this happening?

I don't know, craft - but why don't you log out? I log out of everything before I close the computer down for the night. Safer....

[craft1948]

Don't know boxy I suppose because I never have. Even at work we never logged out of the mail system.

mine's been doing the same, craft.. over the last few days. I'm hoping it's a glitch that they're sorting out.

[boxtops]

Realy? - crumbs, we have to log out every time we leave the office for the ngiht - then everything's password protected to get back in again.

Thanks sara.............I've been using Outlook for about 20 years and it's only just started happening. I think I'll look on Yahoo and see if it's mentioned anywhere.

Mine occasionally does that, too.

I have taken to ignoring it and it soon goes away. ;o)

[craft1948]

There's nothing about it on Yahoo................I'll ignore it for a few days and maybe contact them if it persists.

Mine too...it did get to be a nuisance & my son got rid of it for me but I don't know how. It still happens occasionally though. Have you changed internet providers & had new email addresses? That was when mine started.

[craft1948]

No I've had the same ISP and email addy for the last 10 years.

[jackthehat]

All has be the same with mine for years, too ,craft, and I am habitually logged on to 'tinterweb.

Like I say, it does it for a day (or so) and then nothing for months.....and just when I least expect it, it'll do it again.
It's never amounted to anything, though.

lol love 'tinterweb', it sounds strangely Yorkshire

Mine was doing something weird a few weeks ago. Whenever I clicked on a link that someone posted in AB, my windows mail would open!
