Hello,
Last Summer the modem on my Dell with Windows XP was knocked out by a lightning storm. So I got my old Windows 98 out and used it not knowing that I could have replace the modem for about $10. (I'm not too smart when it comes to these things) Anyway... I replaced the modem an now when I open Outlook Express it downlloads messages from June of 08. When it gets to December 08 Outlook shuts off saying there was a connection problem of some sort. I stay online so that my internet connection doesn't get lost, but stil loose the Outlook connection and have to start all over again. When I open Outlook up it starts downloading the same messages all over again!!!! I'm a my wits end. I would love any help in this matter.
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0
